And he says that bats are insanely cute.





We invite you to meet veterinarian Rhi Batty (Rhi Batti) from Australia, which nurses bats. Photos her wards will convince you that they are actually the cutest creatures.

Ree Batty lives in the Gold Coast and works at the Bats Queensland bat sanctuary.



She dreamed of treating dogs and cats, and during her practice she ended up in a bat shelter





Bats fascinated the girl so much that she decided to work with wild animals



Basically, under the care of Ree, there are small bats that were left without a mother.



Adult bats are attacked by predators, or they sit on power wires and die



It is for these reasons that most often the cubs are left alone.



Up to 4 weeks, mice live in an incubator, as their body still does not produce enough heat.



The smallest cubs are fed milk 5-6 times a day



Then fruits are introduced into their diet, while the bats do not eat them completely.



They only suck out the juice: so the bats will be easier during the flight



By three months of age, the mice move into an enclosed enclosure where they will practice flying.



After a few more weeks, the enclosure begins to be left open at night.



Bats start to fly into the forest, but will return until they find a colony



But from time to time they still fly to the shelter for treats.
