A local resident of Morristown, NJ was outside when they noticed a bat flying around in broad daylight. They followed the bat until it eventually landed on a nearby tree. The poor bat looked exhausted and was not safe being out during the day. It was very possible that the bat had been chased out of its roosting spot by a bird, so the finder gave us a call. 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.
