An adorable Australian rescue bat has found a love for grapes after snacking on them for the first time.

Footage of the 12-week-old bat, named Jason by Denise Wade, who has been caring for injured baby bats for more than a decade, was posted on June 25.

“I’ve never yet met a bat who didn’t love grapes, and you can clearly see the enjoyment on Jason’s face as he tucks in,” Wade wrote in the YouTube caption.

Wade added that plucking is a crucial skill for life in the wild, “as some fruits require plucking and holding in the mouth before flying off to a tree to eat the prize in peace and without competition.”

The footage was posted online by Queensland-based Denise Wade, who has been caring for injured baby bats for more than a decade.

Attending to the injured bats at her home in Rochedale South, she regularly shares updates on the animals to her Batzilla the Bat YouTube and Facebook pages. Credit: Batzilla the Bat via Storyful
