It's Fun Fact Friday! Did you know that bats play such an critical role in the regrowth of our planet's rainforests? 🦇❤🌏

On July 31, Lubee celebrated its 35th anniversary. During that time, YOU helped us care for thousands of bats, educate millions of people, and conduct critical conservation projects. Bats continue to face unprecedented threats. Together, we are giving voices to these unappreciated ecosystem guardians. We can't thank you enough for your support, and hope to continue changing hearts and minds around the world! 🦇

The last month of 2024 is here. Bats are hibernating. They may roost on their own or in small groups, often in cool, quiet places like disused buildings, old trees or caves, where they hopefully won't be disturbed.

We had a last minute request for a quick easy to read graphic for a Wildlife Mythbuster Monday feature. Here is is! Please share.

This Silver was found on the floor in a parking garage, and the wonderful finder placed him in a cozy tree!
Silver's often come out on a warm day (like it was in Denver yesterday) to get a sip of water before going back into torpor.🥰

Cold fronts are beginning to blow in! If you find a bat where she should not be, such as lying on the ground or roosting on the side of a building, she needs your help! Please remember to use gloves or a thick towel to place the bat inside a cardboard box with a lid, then contact us. Our phone number is 940-325-3404. You may also find a rescuer by using our online rescue locator: https://batworld.org/local-rescue/ We have rescuers across the US (and internationally!) and will do our best to help. 🙂

It's Day 7 of Bat Week! Thank you all for celebrating with us! Did you know bats have lifespans that are pretty long compared to other animals their size. Imagine how many bugs eaten, seeds were spread, or plants were pollinated in a lifetime! Thank you bats!

While we celebrated , we continue to learn more about bats through the year, share our knowledge on bats, and be good bat neighbors by helping bats where we can by what we do and helping others understand them.

Don't forget to tag us and use the hashtag to shos how you're your celebrating bats with us!
