BAT WORLD SANCTUARY
The Largest Bat Sanctuary on Earth
Bat World Sanctuary is on the front line to end the mistreatment of bats. Each year we rescue hundreds of bats who might otherwise die. Lifetime sanctuary is given to non-releasable bats, including those that are orphaned, injured, and rescued from the exotic pet trade, zoos and research facilities. We are also involved in conservation efforts both locally and internationally.
Bat World was founded in 1994 and is a 501c3 non-profit, accredited organization with the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries.

"Excuse me, ma`am. Today, I wanna do it myself."
Travis decided to be extra cute during mealtime by climbing into the bowl and munching on some worms himself. He still didn`t mind the extra hand-out, though! I wonder if little worms crawling through your hair feels good? 😂
Monday got you down? The bats are here to make your evening a little bit better! 🦇

It`s fall y`all! 🍂🦇
Autumn bring us colder weather, holidays, and comfy cozy piles of leaves! Some bats such as the Eastern reds and Hoary bats hibernate during the colder months. Mexican freetails on the other hand, will be taking a holiday trip and migrating to areas of Mexico where it will be warm and the bugs plentiful!
Young bats are learning to migrate and hibernate for the winter. They sometimes get lost and end up in human structures. Bats are valuable, gentle, intelligent and clean and they need help when they are lost. If you find a bat trapped inside a building (or in any trouble otherwise) please remember to use gloves to place the bat inside a box with a lid, then contact us. Our phone number is 940-325-3404. You may also find a rescuer by using our online rescue locator: https://batworld.org/local-rescue/ We have rescuers across the US (and internationally!) and will do our best to help. 🙂
