About this flag

Black Flying Fox

• Element 1: Emblem

  Behaviour - hanging

  Unlike birds, bats cannot launch their bodies into the air from the ground, because their wings don't produce enough lift to take off. If a roosting bat need to escape quickly, hanging upside-down means they are already in the perfect position to spread their wings and fly away.

• Element 2: Pattern

  Habitat - tall trees

  Flying foxes roost in high trees in forests and woodlands, and urban areas.
