#Repost @rosanna_joellehero • • • Fruit Bats are a fundamental part of the ecosystem. They spread fruit seeds, starting new trees and eat millions of mosquitos during one night. Rescued Orphans Babies need a lots of attentions, as drinking a special recipe of milk and being warmed during feeding.

…a pair of conjoined bat twins discovered in southeastern Brazil back in 2001.
Researchers believe the twins are Neotropical fruit bats (Artibeus), which are endemic to parts of Central and South America as well as the Carribbean.
According to National Geographic, this is the third known case of conjoined bats. In humans, dicephalic parapagus—or partial twinning—is caused when the embryo of identical twins fails to completely split into two after fertilization. Partial twinning is very rare and thus pretty understudied, so the researchers studying these bats hope to use the specimen to learn more about what causes to two heads to emerge side-by-side on one body.
“These twins are males and present separated heads and necks, but a conjoined trunk with an expanded upper thoracic region,” the researchers wrote. “They developed two complete forelimbs and two complete hindlimbs, all laterally to the trunk. There is a volume in the upper midback and between the heads that resembles a third rudimentary medial forelimb, but X-ray images only suggest the presence of medial skeletal elements of the pectoral girdle (clavicle and scapulae) in this region.”
