🦇🦇IF YOU FIND A BAT ALONE, INJURED OR ON THE GROUND DO NOT TOUCH IT, CALL 0499453674 or 0484848657 ASAP.🦇🦇
Australian bats all have a small chance of having Lyssavirus. Lyssavirus has no cure, though is easily preventable by not touching any bat. It is only transferable through a bite or scratch. Its very simple- NO TOUCH = NO HARM. We are fully vaccinated against Lyssavirus, licensed and trained to handle and rehabilitate bats. Please if you find an injured or orphaned native animal call asap.
‼️It is illegal to keep native fauna if you are not trained and licensed to do so. They also require specialised diet and care. Your good intentions to care for them yourself can be a death sentence to the animal.‼️
