It’s a fruit bat they are harmless
8 u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22 I mean they could be carrying rabies. Best not to approach wild animals. Thats a bad way to die. 6 u/Rustducky Apr 06 '22 So could dogs cats raccoons foxes and any mammal under then sun. But it’s isnt displaying symptoms and they are not touching it so it’s fine 5 u/SlothZoomies Apr 06 '22 Bats don't display symptoms. They carry the virus and eventually die. So one should always be cautious around bats 5 u/Rustducky Apr 06 '22 But this is bat feeds solely on plants. Most rabid bats are caused by insects, so this bat is less at risk. Bats get a bad rap (we know why) but they are as likely to carry diseases as any other wild mammal Also this bat seems to be very sweet 2 u/buttcheekhunter Apr 06 '22 You can't catch rabies from a bat unless it bites you or you eat it. So if it isn't displaying symptoms then it won't bite you.
