Just a reminder, do not ever handle micro bats, or bats in general, unless you are trained and vaccinated.

A micro bat bite can be painless but still transmit rabies or other Lyssavirus strains.

As a follow up, here is a list of rescues you can contact if you find an injured bat:

or other Lyssavirus strains.

... Well, that was a research hole I regret going down.

seems very unwise to handle wild microbats.

Totally is unless you are a wildlife rescuer with all your rabies shots. Otherwise, no touchie!

You'll need medical attention if you do not put them down this instant. Dr. Acula will not be kind to those that mistreat bats.

I hear a bunch of quitters! Are y'all not Republican enough? Is that it? 🤔. Lol just taking a jab and adding to the conversation to apply proper meaning to the R word.

I used to be a little republican once. I got a mouse by the tail and it bit me. I had to go get my rabies shot...you know the brand new shot introduced to my town's services that month. But now I'm an American, because you grow.

I strongly suspect that your comment is attached to the wrong post.

No, we're good. If you wanna pickup a bat barehanded that's pretty republican of you. That's all I'm saying.
