I guess they changed that clue, cause it wasnt in there for me. Guess the clue now is the transferer of bubonic plague. Couldnt think of anythign but rats for a while, and being f-themed, fly... (but that allready was another answer) got it in the end though. Hopping pest would ve been mucch easier though

Nor have I. I've also never heard of anything called a Flying Fox.

I've never heard of a megabat. To me it's always been a flying fox for a fruit bat. When I lived in Australia you could see them flying around at night sometimes. Beautiful animals

Lightning bug? .... That's a really weird description

It's a regional thing. That's what they are called in my area of the US mid-south. I was in school before I ever heard the word firefly. http://mentalfloss.com/article/66185/regional-breakdown-firefly-vs-lightning-bug (At least QM didn't use peenie wallie.)

Flying foxes are but one genus of the megabat (which is a suborder and unlikely to be commonly used (hence it being the lowest scoring clue)). This clue needs updating/clarification - something like 'Bat of the Indian and South Western Pacific oceans.

or just a species of bat, that are quite big who would know where they live... (unless you live near yourself..)

I thought "they travel in schools" was related to nits/head lice in some way..... like a bug kids pass on at school, didn't catch on it meant fish! Nice quiz :-)

Never heard of a flying squirrel. Down here we have Sugar Gliders, which I think are a marsupial, not a rodent.

At first I read the clue as "rodent that glides between tires". All I could think of was fast squirrel. I wasn't far off.
