Bats are still for sale at Indonesia markets despite link to COVID-19

Experts worry about the transmission risks at poorly regulated markets. Around three-quarters of all newly identified viruses in humans have made the jump from animals. In a wild animal market in Indonesia s North Sulawesi province, bats are still on the menu. Many of them are caught by hunters in forests using nets and hooks. Once at the market, their wings are removed, their fur scorched off using a blow torch, and they re then skewered ready for cooking.
