Did you know there was such a thing as a registered bat carer? And did you know that they are the only people who should ever touch bats? And did you know bats liked to be bundled up like little burritos?

We're learning so many things today!

Check out this video from the Australian Bat Clinic to see just what happens when baby bats are brought in to be taken care of. When they're separated from their mothers at too young of an age, they need to be handled carefully and given a lot of attention. Bat carers will mimic what a mama bat would do, including giving them a small rubber teat to suckle on and wrapping them tightly in a blanket to rest and feel safe. Can you believe how adorable these little guys are?
