Lil' Drac, a fruit bat, was hand raised by volunteers. The cotton swab feels like his mother's tongue. A tiny foam tip is used to give him his milk (Remember he is a mammal!). The volunteers keep him nice and clean. Bats like to hang upside down. Lil' Drac loves to rock after he eats. Watch how he does that.

This is the second video about Lil' Drac. Watch him grow. His first solid food was a bit of banana in goat's milk. Wow! He sure loves it! I love his little ears. Next he gets to fly. AWWWW! It takes a while to learn. Watch how he climbs up the hand. And even though he is all grown up, he still likes to rock . . . How cute is that!?!
