7. You're in the neighborgood, indeed.
(NOT new to science) This is a previously seen but still undescribed species endemic to Papua New Guinea- observed by Rapid Assessment Program (RAP) researchers - This Tube-nosed Fruit Bat Nyctimene sp. from the Muller Range mountains does not yet have a name but has been found in other parts of New Guinea. It is likely restricted (endemic) to hill forests on the island. Fruit bats are important seed dispersers in tropical forests.

5. A foxbat, I think.
Definitely a bat, though. The ears and the nose are dead giveaways...

13. He looks like he's posing for an elementary school picture and
somebody told him to smile. So human-like with an intelligence behind the eyes and "smile".

Ladies, I think he's single.
