The Little Red Flying Fox is a small bat with reddish fur that lives in Australia. It flies long distances in search of flowers and fruits and helps plants with pollination.
The Little Red Flying Fox differs from other flying foxes by its smaller body size and bright red fur color. It is important for nature because it transfers pollen between trees and helps forests recover.
