🦇 THE BAT RESCUER
This is the story of Corky Quirk of @norcalbats - a wildlife carer who has always had a soft spot for the underdog, and for her that means bats. She cares for injured and orphaned bats and introduces people to animals that are often feared and misunderstood.
Beneath California’s Yolo Causeway live Mexican free-tailed bats - tiny animals that do a huge amount for the landscapes around them. They consume enormous quantities of insects and help farmers reduce their reliance on pesticides.
But bats face challenges of their own. Habitat pressures, drought and diseases like white-nose syndrome are changing bat populations across North America, and Corky knows she can’t save a species one bat at a time. Her hope is that by replacing fear with understanding, she can give them a better chance.

We have recently received some wonderful gifts from our Amazon wish list. We truly appreciate the support. Amazon no longer tells us who sends the gifts. So our only way to thank you is through social media. Please accept our appreciation.

Baby season is full on, from these little Mexican free-tailed pups to canyon juveniles that are showing up in odd places as they learn to fly. Different species birth at different times, the free-tailed are last to birth. Several species have birth in May, and those pups are starting to fly. Mexican free-tailed pups won't start flying until early to mid-August.

Many wildlife rehab stories are made of a succession of miracles.
Someone spotted this tiny (1.6g!) myotis pup on the ground in a park. That person called animal control, who collected the bat. The officer called NorCal Bats who referred them to me. Bat World Sanctuary's transport map led me to a transporter who was willing to drive the bat to me (70 miles round trip).Â
And after all that, this tiny little being had the reserves and will to survive.
My deep gratitude to the finder, ACO Jeanette, transporter Annette, Bat World Sanctuary, and NorCal Bats for getting this pup to safety. Thank you to Corky, JoEllen, and Rachel for their generous advice on care.
If you ever find a bat (or any rabies vector species) please do not handle them with bare hands; county health departments will require the bat to be euthanized for rabies testing.
