Greater Short-Nosed Fruit Bat (Cynopterus sphinx)

You can purchase a skeleton by itself, or already framed inside a huge 16" shadowbox frame with glass front.

This large bat has a wingspan of 30-32cms. 

The back of the shadow box frame has a hook for hanging on the wall. A beautiful glass front protects your specimen from dust. These shadow boxes are 6cm deep.

This is a huge 16"x 16" frame. Dimensions: Width: 42cm. Height: 42cm. Depth: 6cm

Please note: Some of these pictures have been taken with the glass removed so we can display the skeleton without reflections, your frame will be received with glass.

Bat Specimens & Sourcing

We understand that offering bat skeletons and skulls can raise ethical concerns, and rightfully so. For that reason, we rarely offer these specimens and take great care in sourcing when we do.

We source these exclusively from a single, long-term supplier we have vetted. This individual travels directly to rural regions where bats are sometimes culled in small numbers by local communities as part of traditional, small-scale pest control. Instead of allowing these remains to go to waste, the locals sell them for a small profit, supporting their livelihoods in a sustainable, low-impact way. Our supplier, who collects and sells insects from these areas, purchases these remains. We purchase these bats with the snakes, insects and birds we also stock from him.

No bats we stock are killed in bulk or by cruel means. The only species we carry are common species that are classified as “Least Concern” under conservation guidelines and not CITES listed. Every specimen is treated with the care and respect it deserves.

Because of our strict ethical policy, we very rarely offer bat specimens for sale.
