The baby bat Screamed out in fright "Turn on the dark, I'm afraid of the light!" (By Shel Silverstein) This is little Ralph. He was an orphaned flying fox in Melbourne several years ago. He was successfully raised and released back to the wild. We hope he's a big strong boy out there creating forests somewhere nowadays <3 Pic by Christen Tynan #shelsilverstein #bats #flyingfox #wildlifecarer #flybynightbatclinic #threatenedspecies #pollinator #batsofinstagram #lovebats #greyheadedflyingfox #australianwildlife #ralph
