POUCHBAT

POUCHBAT

"Hari watched him with benign amusement, as if he were a pouchbat." 

"Once every eight or ten years they flowered and bore a small edible fruit, the seeds of which were excreted by wotsits, pouchbats, farfallies, tree-coneys, and other fruit lovers."

Ursula K. Le Guin, The Eye Of the Heron
