Baby Bat with Hiccups

Turtles are dangerous. Bats are MUCH nicer. Baby bat rescue goes slightly awry, but has a happy ending.

Funny Film, but sad to see from BatWorldSanctuary that MORE was needed. If you've got bats n like to help when needed, probably a good idea to get a tutorial from them as to how to help in emergencies like this. xxx

Correct. I had no idea this vid would become so popular, so I didn't stress the point, but it is important to repeat that baby bats MUST be returned to the roost. Since it's not really a great idea for an amateur to stick their hand in an occupied bat roost, always call a qualified bat rehabilitator for assistance.

What bat species is this? I was unable to identify =(

[JimSelleck]

I'm not a bat expert, I just play one on TV. As far as I am aware, all of the bats that nest around our house are Little Brown Bats (Myotis lucifugus).

I saved a baby snake once. It was so hot and dry. When I found him I put some water in the bottom of an upside down Coke can and that little baby drank it all. He stayed wrapped around my hand for about 45 minutes and I let him go into the cool, shady grass. That was a good day. :)
