What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

conservation · Plazi

Status and Conservation. Classified as Data Deficient on The IUCN Red List. The African Giant Free-tailed Bat is thought to be a rare bat and is seldom caught, although based on acoustic data from the Soutpansberg reported by P. J. Taylor and colleagues in 2015, it seems possible that the species may be fairly common butjust much underrepresented in collections.
