..I have advocated for them . I have ordered equipment from Bat World so I can make them comfortable until rescue arrives. I have a 'nursery' in my attic and sometimes little ones fall out. NOW I know better and I have bat rescue on quick dial. However they have to make 100 mile round trip to meet me and hand off the little one. Unfortunately the bats dont usually survive...even after hours of attempting to save the little guys.

We need more bat rescues, people!
