Learned a few things--the pouch underneath the "arm"/wing and collecting water in the wing.
Great seeing the silhouettes in the trees- bats just being themselves. I thought -how lucky we are to to have this variety of wildlife in Australia. Not for long of course, with population growth and development on the march. We need to appreciate and learn about it whilst we still have it.You- Tube is a good vehicle.

Ok...this is beautiful footage and a huge big Hug to Bat carers all over australia and the world....just to let people know....please do not touch australian bats...unfortunantly some carry a virus that is deadly to humans...the virus is passd to human when bitten or scratched by an infected bat...Julia would be vacccinated against this virus as are all Bat handlers in Australia..please contact your nearest wildlife rescue group if you find one injured or orphaned..please do not touch!

@benethy78 She's not a pet.

@RanieroSupremo91 It's an extremely bad idea to have a bat as a pet. They are endangered all over the world and need, above all, to be left alone and protected.
-
Awesome pet, but I'd have to say the music is a bit bat sh*t crazy. Nice vid though.
-
It's like a dog and a dragon
-
I love it!! But is it possible to buy and keep them as pet??
-
That bat is pretty
-
so you apply shock to her wings to create any shape?
-
@JpSnipezz: No, I don't find it strange. The bat is adorable!
-
Awww what a sweetheart! I love her ears. Look at em move!!!!! KAWAII!!!

Hmm. This is my most successful video. There are quite a few others with no music - most of the ones about the kangaroo situation. Sorry it doesn't please you.

So how do they do their "business" without making a mess of themselves? Or is it something they only do while in flight?

It's actually explained in the film.

Would love to see more footage of Julia Buch-takes a special person indeed to care for wild animals.Would like to know her feelings on rereleasing her bats back to the wild and do they ever return to her?

Yes they do return to her, but they tend to stop returning after they find a mate, as she says in the film. Gracie, when I took that film, was a free-roaming spirit, but she came back most days and hung out in a basket hanging in the kitchen or the back shed. My experience is that you can make friends with wild animals if they pass through your garden. There is another film on my channel about possums living in a kitchen in Brisbane - called A Hollow of one's own.
