text:
The New Zealand long-tailed bat, also known as the long-tailed wattled bat and pekapeka tou-roa is one of 15 species of bats in the genus Chalinolobus variously known as "pied bats", "wattled bats" or "long-tailed bats". It is one of the two surviving bat species endemic to New Zealand, but is closely related to five other wattled or lobe-lipped bats in Australia and elsewhere. It won the 2021 Bird of the Year competition in New Zealand, despite not being a bird.
