A homeowner in Dallas, TX  found a mama and three baby bats lying on the ground. The mom wasn’t moving, so the individual went to the Bat World Sanctuary website and followed the instructions on how to put mama on a stick and put the bat up in the tree, but then mom took off with one baby attached and the other babies fell to the ground. Mom was likely stressed and dropped her babies. We provided guidance on how to safely contain the bats and located a bat-trained rescuer in the finder’s area. The babies were transferred to a rescuer where they will be hand-raised and released when old enough to survive.
