Bats have big ears, furry bodies and wings like leather. They are nocturnal mammals. This means they sleep in caves and attics during the day and fly out to feed at nighttime.

Besides that, Raja Ampat has a beautiful scenery, especially of its underwater corals and beach. Under the water of Raja Ampat Island, I can see many natural coral reefs never touched by humans.
