Fawn-coloured Leaf-nosed Bat - Hipposideros cervinus I was part of an expedition team doing a survey of bio-diversity of Mt. Lucia which includes a group of Bat researchers from 2 local Universities who joined the expedition to help documents species of Bats that can be found from the Mountain and also to give their students some field experience in collecting bats using mist nets and subsequently collecting data about them. All bats collected were eventually released. Bat,Fawn-coloured Leaf-nosed Bat,Hipposideros cervinus,Malaysia,Sabah,Tawau Click/tap to enlarge
