Huge eyes, spotted wings and a tubular nose...Few animals are as unique in appearance as the eastern tube-nosed bat!

See more of the incredible work at the Australian Bat Clinic – Any donations go a long way:

Eastern tube-nosed bats are a small species of fruit bat found along the coasts and ranges of Eastern Australia, the Torres Strait islands and New Guinea.

A shy animal by nature, these nimble bats are rarely encountered by humans due to their elusive behaviour and effective camouflage.

Typically a rainforest species, tube nosed-bats feed on a variety of native and exotic fruits, nectar, flowers and pollen making them effective seed dispersers and pollinators within the Australian ecosystem.
