The heartwarming story of Sully the incredibly cute flying fox - found near death and nursed back to health by a woman who captured her remarkable recovery on video

With big wide eyes and full cheeks, it is difficult to not find Sully the flying-fox adorable in this incredible video which documents her journey from near death to finding out she is pregnant.

The footage, uploaded to YouTube, shows Sully the grey headed flying-fox lying on the ground under children's play equipment considered nearly dead by her founders as she was unconscious and unresponsive.

But a quick thinking Sydney residents rushed the bat to the vets for an x-ray to check for a spinal fracture. The x-ray found no fracture but discovered she was pregnant and due in two months time.


It's a happy ending for all as the rescuer says 'after six weeks in hospital Sully is released to join the wild locals on Sydney's upper north shore and is still pregnant'.
