Scientists have uncovered a rare, brilliantly-striped bat
in South Sudan that has yielded new secrets after close study. Working
in Bangangai Game Reserve during July of last year, biologist DeeAnn
Redeer and conservationist Adrian Garsdie came across an unmissable bat,
which has been dubbed by various media outlets as the 'badger bat' and
the 'panda bat.'
After collecting a specimen, Reeder took the bat back to the U.S. and
confirmed that it belongs to a species that was discovered over seventy
years ago in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1939.
