It is hard to guess what a Cyclops roundleaf bat weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Cyclops roundleaf bat (Hipposideros cyclops) on average weights 32 grams (0.07 lbs).
The Cyclops roundleaf bat is from the family Rhinolophidae (genus: Hipposideros). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 7.5 cm (0′ 3″). On average, Cyclops roundleaf bats can have babies 1 times per year with a litter size of 1.
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
