Jamaican fruit bats are essential pollinators to many species of fruits in the tropics, including mangos, bananas, figs, papayas, and avocados. As a matter of fact, plants like agave, durian, and guava are pollinated only by different species of fruit bats. Next time you enjoy a fruit salad, be sure to thank the numerous bat species that kept them pollinated and growing. 📽: Bailey Cole, Senior Animal Keeper #bmd #boonshoftmuseum #Jamaicanfruitbat | Boonshoft Museum of Discovery

BATS ARE POLLINATORS! 🌺 🦇 🌸 From deserts of the American Southwest to the high Andes of South America and the Caribbean Islands, hundreds of species of agave and cactus plants rely on bats for pollination. 🥃 Mexico’s entire tequila industry relies on bats to pollinate agave. 🍌 All commercial bananas originated from bat-pollinated ancestors in SE Asia.
