This is a really good read about one of my favourite weird animal facts!
You must log in or register to comment.
Reminds me of that old joke.
What do you call a fly without wings?
Mystacinobia zelandica
.
Typically, these archaic New Zealanders behave in ways the rest-of the-world team thinks truly weird.
Shots fired!
But seriously, this was a neat read. A species of fly that can’t fly, similar to bat flies in other countries except our one doesn’t eat the bat, it eats their poo instead!
Yeah it was cool eh, I loved all the stuff about the tree and how there are always pregnant bat riders to make sure the species continues.
