A baby bat was found on the ground in Woodbine, NC. The finders called a rehab center who told them to just “leave the baby on the ground so mom could find it”, which is always a death sentence for bats of any age. We provided guidance on how to safely contain the bat and located a bat-trained rescuer in the finder’s area. The bat was transferred to a rescuer where she will be assessed for hopeful release back to the wild.
