Chinese Woman Filmed Eating A Whole Bat At Fancy Restaurant After Coronavirus Outbreak

A woman from China was filmed eating a bat in a restaurant after China announced that the Coronavirus could have spread by a soup that was made from the mammal.

Earlier the government of China announced that the Coronavirus outbreak started from an animal that was sold at the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, China.

The video that went viral on social media shows the woman holding the bat with a pair of enormous chopsticks.

The woman can be seen nibbling on its wings.

Bat skin and meat is a popular dish in Wuhan and is considered as a delicacy in the country.

While the woman appeared to be tentative about her meal, the partner of the woman started to go ahead with the meal.

The partner can be seen removing the skin of the bat and pulling out the meat from the bones of the animal.

A man in the back can be heard calling out the woman in Mandarin.

According to translators, the man said “Eat the meat! [Don’t] eat the skin.”

The man added “‘[You] should eat the meat on its back.’”

The woman and the partner shared a large pot of bat soup that was placed in the middle of the table.
