BAT WORLD SANCTUARY

Hey, we don`t care how they get to us, as long as they get here safely. 👓🚒

This sweet little newborn evening bat was found in the parking lot of a Fire Station by Firefighter Colby. He grabbed the first thing available, his eyeglass case, and then transported the tiny baby to us. Colby named this little dude "Big Pimpin`. 😆

It`s orphan season. By the time the summer is over we will have rescued and hand-raised dozens of sweet little souls like this one. They will be fed round the clock, and, when the time comes, will be able to hone their wings in our flight enclosure before being released back to the wild to eat millions of pesky insects. We feel sure Big Pimpin will be leading the way. <3

THERE IS NO HUMANE WAY TO EXCLUDE A BAT COLONY DURING BABY SEASON.

Most bats give birth to just one pup starting in late spring and summer. if you seal out a bat colony or trim down their palm frond home during the spring or summer, baby bats will be left behind to die. if you have an unwanted bat colony in your attic, ensure there`s no way they can get into the home`s interior but wait until the end of summer before having the colony excluded. Visit batworld.org for humane ways to evict bats at the proper time of the year. You can find a link down below.

Meet Linal! 🦇

Linal is a Mexican free-tail bat, and a permanent resident at the sanctuary. With a sweet face like that, we could not resist giving him an extra mealworm after dinner tonight! We always go the extra mile to satisfy our amazing batty residents. ❤️
