They emerge from the roost to forage for food in the late evening, and return just before dawn. They hang upside down, with their wings folded closely around their bodies. Egyptian fruit bats, along with other species in the genus "Rousettus", are the only megachiropterid bats to use echolocation, which they accomplish by emitting a series of sharp clicks with their tongues.
