Scientists have discovered that more than two-thirds of female short-nosed fruit bats perform oral sex on their male partners. The female bats that gave their lovers a generous head start were rewarded with longer love making sessions. The sonar-aided chicks also continued the act during mating. Flexibility is apparently very big in the bat community.
Before this, the only animals other than humans known to perform oral sex were hilarious bonobo chimpanzees. Researchers once thought a lioness was about to perform oral sex on a male lion, but she just bit his wanger off. Didn't really count. When asked about this revelation,
Frans de Waal, a primatologist at Emory University in Atlanta and an expert on bonobo chimpanzees, said: "The finding of fellatio in bats is exciting news."
What a weirdo.
As of press time, there are no confirmations of the animal urban legends of raccoon reach-arounds or antelope autoerotic asphyxiation.

I never knew Yvonne Craig was that flexible.
I think it's hilarious that you used a picture of batman and robin in lieu of a picture of actual bats!
P.S. I love Adam West
I don't know what you're talking about Vicky. I put "bat" in the Google images and this is the first pic that came up. I'm not that clever. Just lazy.
Sadly, I'll bet the other less than one third of female short-nosed fruit bats don't even date.
good point ben.
i wonder if we could get some grant money to research the spits or swallows aspect of the short-nosed fruit bats.
And now I am reminded of Mark Chamberlain.
I really spat coffee on my monitor when the image finished loading and I was reading the part where you say that the female bat gives head.
Best choice for a graphic idea on the subject, J-Dubs. Even being a lazy one.
I imagine the short nose is helpful, too.
good observation william
