Giant Golden Crowned Flying Fox

This is a real bat. When I first saw a picture of it I didn't believe what I was seeing could be real, it looks like something out of a movie on syfy about bats that get exposed to nuclear waste or something. But it is, its called a Giant golden crowned flying fox also known as the golden capped fruit bat and is part of a subspecies of bat commonly referred to as a megabat due to its size and wingspan. They are currently considered an endangered species due to loss of habitat and trophy hunting resulting in dwindling numbers

Giant golden crowned flying foxes are a species of flying fox native to Thailand and have a wingspan of around 5 to 5.6 feet although the actual body of the creature is generally around 1 foot so their impressive size is mostly wings and limbs. And while they look scary they subsist wholly on fruit, mostly figs and rarely attack other creatures or humans unless threatened. Unlike most species of bat, the Golden crowned flying fox cannot echolocate and instead must rely on eyesight to see.

Pocahontas, one of the regular great hammerheads at Tiger Beach comes in close to check us all out! Although Great Hammerheads are found in all oceans, the very best place to see them in clear shallow water is the Bahamas! At Tiger Beach you can see them with Tigers, Bulls, Lemons, Nurse and Reef Sharks! Join us to see them for yourself! Sadly Sharks are very similar to Elephants and Rhinos... people kill them in huge numbers just to take one small part! We must end these horrific brutal needless killings! @jim_abernethy #savethesharks #ilovesharks #shark #beautiful #epic #greathammerhead #hammerhead #sharkexpeditions #FinBanNOW #needlessslaughter #protectwildlife #endtrophyhunting #stopfinning #Bethechangetheworldneeds

For many years this 17ft tiger gentile giant was my closest shark friend in the Bahamas, prior to Emma! This gorgeous and friendly Tiger Shark...White Spot was killed by trophy hunters within weeks of when Tiger Beach location was revealed by another shark operator. These trophy hunters applied for a world record with her weighed and measured carcass! The local marina where she was weighed cut her down thinking she was pregnant after the KILLERS went to the bar. Two of the pups were still alive and were set free. The rest were already dead. My great friend Dr. Guy Harvey disqualified the attempted trophy. Since then I have honored her life by placing this image of her, on the side of my shark expedition vessel "Shear Water" to inspire all that know her story to help me save sharks! Why do we still allow and give trophies for the needless killing of our beautiful wildlife? Please help me end this needless practice by sharing this post! The many stories like this bring great sadness to me, however they also inspire me to save the few we still have! Join me to meet the beautiful Tigers, Great Hammerheads, Bulls, Lemons, Caribbean Reefs and Nurse sharks at Tiger Beach! Link in bio! Unfortunately we have not managed our planets wildlife responsibly and if we don't correct our mistakes and allow sharks and other wildlife to rebound from being needlessly slaughtered, even our own exhistance is in Peril, as we are all connected! Sharks are essential to keeping our oceans healthy and in balance! The oceans are the heart of our planet! Over 50% of the air we breath and 70% of the protein we eat comes from the ocean. Without our the ocean all life on this planet will die. Many issues for this planet caused by man need to be corrected asap! Please be the change the world needs to survive! Best immediate way to save sharks here in the US...Support Oceanas Shark Fin Trade Ban! https://www.change.org/p/congress-ban-the-trade-of-shark-fins-in-the-u-s @jim_abernethy #savesharks #endtrophyhunting #oceanasharkfintradeban #saveplanetearth #savesharks #lovesharks #savenature #jimabernethysscubaadventures (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)

Image by our founder @jim_abernethy Text by our wildlife conservation partner @oneprotest // Bears were once heavily hunted without regulation nearly killing entire populations, and it took years to get their numbers back up. Some States to this day still pride themselves on killing thousands of bears every year with an annual hunting season, aiming to kill more than the previous year. But that is not victory. That is nothing to be proud of. We must protect the creatures we almost lost once before, we must learn to coexist with them!

Today I sit at the FWC meeting to speak once againi in for our wildlife, as well as hear the results of our land based shark fishing campaign and other campaigns that you all continue to help me with! I'm incredibly grateful for all of you! Hopefully all our efforts will be awarded another win! This shark pictured was also a casualty of a trophy driven sport that needlessly kills sharks!
