Sumatran fruit bats<br> Sightseeing in Sumatra picture - These live bats were for sale by a sidewalk vendor who wasn't anxious for me to take the picture. My local friend claims the bats are prepared and eaten for medicinal purposes. The vehicle to the right is called a becak (bay-chack), an all purpose vehicle used to haul freight as well as passengers.
