Used to snuggling up to their mothers, they need to be kept warm and are fed through teats with a sugary liquid full of nutrients.

Fruit Bats I know exist on the Marianas Island chain. I lived on the island of Guam in my mid teens for two years (my father was career Navy). My hobby of Astronomy would get my up early in the morning before dawn to see a new comet or some other object I was interested in. I would often see them at the crack of dawn flying from roost to roost in the Coconut trees that were everywhere on base. They were excellent flyers and seemed intelligent. Never saw one flying during the day or even the evening there, just mornings before sun up.

I don’t know how they got to the Marianas, whether they were native or brought there by the early Chamorro people who settled the Marianas or if they exist in the other island chains in the Pacific. But let us hope they survive someplace there. They are a wondrous animal.
