There are 26 species of megabats in the Philippines, but the giant golden-crowned flying fox is the biggest of them all.
Endemic to the jungles of the Philippines, this enormous species of megabat is the largest bat in the world with a wingspan of up to five and a half feet and colonies that can number up to 10,000 members.
Ironically, these bats are rather harmless and pose no real danger to us — but human poaching and deforestation directly endanger the species.
