At least it keeps the numbers down.

Look at how QLD has a problem with the number of fruit bats!

Eating all the crops and leaving their droppings all over the place!

I do not think is as many fruit bats here in Melbourne ...... the epicentre of multi-cultural life and exoctic tastes ie pizza - maybe someone who has dined lately in Chinatown might enlighten as the the offered fares , under " night ducks" or something ?

I reckon, if this virus thing goes on,  and once we get over the shortage of toilet paper and handwash, and start finding no food on the shelves of the supermarkets, we might start looking at the bats.

And other meat.

30,000 in one suburb not enough for you?

They're all over Melbourne in their tens of thousands

And their poop is like acid to car duco.

Does anybody remember the Hendra Virus? That virus was deadly and we were so lucky it was contained. And apparently the Australian bat lyssavirus is even deadlier.

Hendra is passed on to Horses through bat poo and a Vet died from it.

I hated the Bats in QLD, the Grand Children used to love to see them coming over at dusk, but the Poo was awful.

Poo on the car and in the swimming pool YUK it is like toffee

There we are Icy you eat one first then tell us how it was, Look at the date of this
