Thousands of orphaned baby bats are raised by volunteers across Australia each year and although the species may differ, raising methods remain consistent.
All our little bat orphans are placed onto a mumma roll which replicates their mother's body before being swaddled in a wrap which provides warmth and security just like mum's wings.
All are offered a dummy/pacifier with a blind end as this vital piece of equipment also provides a sense of security and comfort.
Raised with love and affection, these members of the next generation of flying-foxes are well on their way to free flight and ultimately, release back to the wild.
