Banana Bat Musonycteris harrisoni

A bat from the Mexican states of Colima, Michoacán, and Guerrero, named because it was first discovered in a banana grove. They have adaptations for feeding on nectar, including a specialized hovering flight to feed on flowers and a long tongue which can be up to two-thirds of their body length.

If you enjoy creative writing and like Neopets, I highly suggest submitting to the Neopian Post - its a fan-run site that publishes fan-created content on a monthly basis! Its a bit like a fan-run Neopian Times. If you have rejections from the NT or other work, please consider submitting. You can submit short stories, series, articles, comics, poems, and fan art.

Soft deadline for the next issue is: July 10th.

Read last month's issue to see my article parodying the Schmidt Pain Index for insect stings, but with petpetpets instead!
