Depending on who you ask, the durian is either the best or worst food on the planet. Recently, researchers found out that this strange piece of fruit, which is a delicacy in Malaysia, relies on healthy populations of flying fox for survival. As it turns out, the flying fox is the unlikely pollinator of the durian. The only problem is flying fox populations are dwindling fast, and when the number of flying fox decline, so do the number of durian. Now that people have become aware of how vital the flying fox is for the durian, it could help spur more conservation for these furry bats.
Scientists are finally realizing how important giant bats are for the durian
