"In the lead up to Valentine's Day, ARKive asked us to nominate a species we think is overlooked, under-appreciated and (relatively) unloved for some extra attention. What better than the grey-headed flying-fox!?
These glorious animals are vital for healthy ecosystems, highly social and incredibly intelligent, yet their habitat continues to be destroyed while they're shot and subjected to vitriolic treatment throughout their range.
Show you care and help these bats get the much-needed recognition and attention they deserve by checking out their profile (http://goo.gl/3PKFLE) before casting your vote at http://www.arkive.org/vote-valentines2016!
