Nevada – bat found at work in glue trap

April 8

An employee of a business in Las Vegas, NV discovered a bat stuck on a glue trap. After calling us for instructions, she used gloves and oil to remove the bat by herself. We provided guidance on how to keep the bat safely and comfortably contained and located a Bat World Sanctuary trained rescuer in her area. The bat was transferred to a rescuer where he/she can be assessed and hopefully returned to the wild.
