In addition to the 700 permanent residents cared for daily at Bat World Sanctuary, the following bats were rescued and released back to the wild (or were provided permanent sanctuary with us if they were not releasable).

A little evening bat was found after a sudden cold snap in Boone, IA. The finder, concerned that the bat wouldn’t survive the cold, gave us a call for more guidance.
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.
