Description
The ropen is a large fish eating bat found near the river systems of north Australia and New Guinea. The long tail and crest of compacted fur of the animal often get it misidentified as a rhamphorhynchoid pterosaur, a group of flying vertebrates that went extinct over 130 million years ago.
