The Malayan Flying Fox (Pteropus vampyrus) is one of the largest bats in the world. They live in the tropics and subtropics of Asia (including the Indian subcontinent), Australia, Oceania, islands off East Africa and a number of remote oceanic islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. All species of flying foxes feed only on nectar, blossom, pollen, and fruit - which explains their limited tropical distribution. They do not possess echolocation (a feature which helps other bats locate and catch prey in mid-air.) Instead, smell and eyesight are very well-developed in flying foxes. When it locates food, the flying fox "crashes" into foliage and grabs for it.
