An apartment resident in Ilchester, MD had a good laugh when they thought a sweet potato was laying in the hall of an apartment breezeway. But upon closer inspection, they realized it was a bat, and it seemed like the little one was struggling to take flight from the ground. 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 he/she will be assessed for hopeful release back to the wild.
