These bats are a part of a larger group of fruit bats within "Rousettus" which consists of 10 different species. The Madagascan rousette primarily resides on western Indian Ocean islands. The habitat of the Madagascan rousette is generally found to be associated with forests. They will roost well beyond the time of twilight.

Food Not Lawns Food Not Lawns Food Not Lawns is a de-centralized social movement focused on replacing urban lawns with food-producing organic gardens. The first group to use the name "Food Not Lawns" was founded in Eugene, Oregon in 1999 by Tobias Policha, Nick Routledge, and Heather Jo Flores. In 2006, Flores published the book "Food Not Lawns: How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community." A self-described "avant-gardening collective", FNL's basic premise was to garner surplus resources, whether food, seeds, plants, tools, garden space, publications, or volunteer time, and channel them toward building better food security
