A Taiwanese golden bat with Youtiao - a fried dough stick known by many other names. This species and treat was requested by some lovely Taiwanese bat researchers I met at IBRC, at least one of whom has been a fatbatweek fan for several years ❤️

Illustration: Pierced on a red chop stick are two fried sticks of dough with a pale gold furred bat hanging between them.

Lookie!
I made a #fatbatweek mailing list - something I've been putting off for years - that way if the platforms I usually share them on cease people still get to see new ones! (side eyes the dead blue canary in the corner)

Triple scoop for #fatbatweek and #BatWeek!
yesthattallulah.bsky.social Tallulah Cunningham @yesthattallulah.bsky.social · Oct 30
Final serve (some what delayed so I made it a triple scoop) of #fatbatweek 2025, late enough to celebrate being amidst #BatWeek! (and shout out to the finalists of the Australasian Bat Of The Year hosted by the Australasian Bat Society)
A Western free-tailed bat clutching a churro garnishes a wafflecone stuffed with a jam doughnut, summonted by a scoop of fried icecream, with whipped cream on top while a western and eastern red bat cling to the sides. Across the waffle cone is a little red banner reading "fat bat week 2025"
