The Grey-headed Flying-fox, also known as the Grey-headed Fruit-bat, is one of the largest bats in the world. Its primary food source is blossom from eucalyptus and related genera but in some areas it also utilises a wide range of rainforest fruits. They are considered a vulnerable species due to a significant decline in numbers as a result of loss of their prime feeding habitat and disruptions to their camp sites. Flying-foxes play a major role in the regeneration of native hardwood forests and rainforests by pollinating as they feed and dispersing seeds as they move throughout the forest. Grey-headed Flying-Foxes have sophisticated vocal communication, making over 30 specific calls.
