The feisty Serotine bat we recently admitted has officially been named Babs by the team – and she’s doing really well! 🦇 She’s learnt to feed herself and is growing stronger every day. Check out the video for some adorable eating noises! Next up for Babs is some flight testing and building up her weight. If she does well in these two areas, we hope it won’t be too long before she’s ready for release. 💚 You can help more wildlife rescue stories like Babs’ happen: share her journey, donate, or l

This serotine bat arrived in our care dehydrated and lethargic. These are one of our largest species of bat in the UK and this guy weighed around 18g! Our most common bats are the pipistrelles who weigh around 5g! This 'little' guy spent a couple of weeks with us being hand fed a variety of things such as AD (specialist nutritional pet food), waxworms and rehydration fluid until he was strong enough to feed himself. He is now doing really well and is a strong flyer with lots of attitude. After f

Babs the Serotine Bat – Update 🦇 Babs continues to win hearts here at Secret World Wildlife Rescue. Despite her feisty start, she’s genuinely one of the most gentle little characters — happy to sit calmly and take her mealworms with perfect manners. She’s had a minor setback recently, losing a little weight, and we’ve discovered she has internal helminths (parasitic worms). The good news is she’s now receiving treatment, and the team is keeping a close eye on her as she recovers. Hopefully, it

A male Cape serotine bat (Laephotis Capensis) came to us via South African Wildlife Rehabilitation Center (SAWRC) in Pretoria last year October, having been found by children on a road, most likely hit by a vehicle. There was spinal (neck) trauma, concussion, blood seeping from his nostrils, and he could not use his arms. As Claudia states "he was in a bad way"...this first part of the video shows his unnatural twisted body movement. He was medicated for trauma/ inflammation and was given extens

Even the most broken wings can fly again. This brave little male Cape Serotine bat was in the fight of his life after a battle with a cat. When he was rescued, he was in a devastating state — a massive puncture wound to his back, two severed fingers, and countless holes and tears in both wings. Simply put: he was a mess. 😔 But even then, he had fight in him. Right after arriving at the clinic, he surprised us all by flying from one end to the other — despite his injuries. That moment told us ev
