The Patch Bar Co. Fruit Bat Patch

Because of their unconventional appearance, bats have gotten a bad rap. Fortunately, many people now realize that bats do a lot more for our planet than fly in swarms near creepy-looking castles. While old horror films portrayed them as animals to be feared, in reality, bats avoid humans and hang out in large colonies with each other and their young. Fruit bats are among the most common bat species in the world, and yes fruit nectar is a big part of their diet. These bats love fruits containing small seeds, and when fully nourished they leave seeds scattered on the ground. These seeds flourish over time, eventually transforming into lush plants that populate the forest. This means that fruit bats, also known as flying foxes, are prolific pollinators who contribute to our ecosystem. As for this endearing bat patch, you can apply it to clothing and accessory items to enhance their visual appeal. Iron-On Patch
