Flying Fox ISN'T a squirrel?
-
Its funny but as soon as I heard that question, I immediatly said it was a Squirrel, and thought it must be right, however it is most definatly a Bat, I checked it out with my dad as well.
Oh Well, you know I think its a shame that when they got to Merlin, they dont get any magic if they get just 1 of the 2 riddles incorrect, I think he should have asked 3 questions, and 2 or more correct would win you magic, IMO it just seemed unfair how it was.

I woud have know what a flying fox was! I'm a nature and Knightmare fan ;D I wished I had been on Knightmare when I saw that....

I automatically said squirrel too but i think people are getting confused with flying squirrels, which DO exist, (they have flaps of skin connecting the front to the back leg on either side of their body which they use to 'glide' from tree to tree, so perhaps they should've called them 'gliding squirrels' )

I really am going a bit overboard with this but I like to inform my fellow forum members, hehe
ANYWAY, If you think about it, a bat being a 'flying fox' is quite logical because foxes eat rubbish and stuff and kind of have the same scavenger behaviour patterns as bats, its just that bats have wings and stuff, so i think 'flying fox' a logical description.
And yes, I am David Attenborough in disguise....

OK, OK, so i'm not REALLY David Attenbourogh, and I don't really like flying squirrels that much, but it was getting close to Lunchtime and I was getting hungry so I just went a little crazy in a David Attenbourogh/flying squirrel lover kind of way.
hehe, sorry for freakin you out Snowwie!
