Daitou  Ou Koumori (Natural Monument)

Daitou Ou Koumori is 20cm long, but when the wings are open, it stretched to over 50cm. The stomach is brown, with gold from the neck to the chest. During the day, it hangs sleeping in a windbreak forest or a coastal forest. It's active at night, eating young, fresh leaves, its well-loved fruits and Gajumaru. The breeding season is May through June, when the bat bears one baby.
