Battling Bats in Mauritius

The Fifth Floor

Available for over a year

There's been a huge bat cull in Mauritius. Normally bats are protected, but the government was forced to take action after fruit farmers complained bats were decimating their crops, and residents in cities were being kept awake at night with the noise. So what exactly does a bat munching on a mango sound like? Yasine Mohabuth from 麻豆社 Afrique has spent many hours listening, and shares his rather good impression.
