North Carolina – bat rescued and being fed milk

February 15, 2023

“I have been following your for years, but haven’t needed your services… We have a baby bat situation in the neighborhood and wonder if you could give us some direction. I’m in Fairview, Buncombe County, NC. The bat is being fed milk by the person who found it.  Can you point me at someone for help.”

We made sure the bat had not been handled with bare hands, then provided the contact info for a bat trained rescuer in the finder’s area. The bat was transferred to a rescuer where he will be assessed for hopeful release back to the wild.
