California- bat found roosting in apartment

March 22

A bat in San Jose, CA was found roosting on top of an apartment door. When the tenant arrived she saw the bat and wanted to make sure it got to a safe place. She contacted us and we provided guidance on how to contain the bat safely 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.
