South Carolina- bat found with broken wing

May 14, 2023

A small brown bat was found hanging on the side of a house in Clover, South Carolina. Upon looking closer, the finder noticed the bat appeared to have a broken wing, so they gave us a call seeking further advice. We provided guidance on how to safely contain the bat and located several bat trained rescuers in the finder’s area. The bat was transferred to a rescuer where it he/she will be assessed and receive lifetime sanctuary as he/she will likely not be releasable.
