Megabat

  • ... that in two species of megabat, males can lactate? Source: "However, male lactation has been documented in populations of free-ranging Dayak fruit bats Dyacopterus spadecius in Malaysia (Figure 1) and the masked flying fox Pteropus capistrastus in Papua New Guinea." ([1])
    • ALT1:... that in a species of megabat, females likely trade sex for food? Source: "This test revealed a strong relationship be-tween producer-scrounger interactions and reproduction. Specifically, females bore pups of the males from which they often scrounged food" ([2])

  • I don't know if I have the time to review this, but while both hooks are good, the first hook is probably the most eye-catching one and perhaps will result in the most interest. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:02, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Symbol confirmed.svg Fantastic job Template:U, I can see you put an incredible amount of effort into the article. If you would like to add an image to your DYK nomination, let me know and I can adjust my review accordingly. Cheers, Toreightyone (talk) 22:08, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Template:U, thanks for the review! It was indeed quite a process to get this to GA! Unfortunately, there are no photographs of either species available, so I don't think any images from the article would make sense with Alt0. Enwebb (talk) 23:05, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
Understandable, I noticed Bismarck masked flying fox has an image however as it is an artist's rendition it probably would not be overly useful. Congrats nonetheless, Toreightyone (talk) 23:44, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
