Rescuing a flying-fox found under a car: Sarah and her Little Princess

[@vtroche2000]

The only thing I have to say is that if I were a little injured batty I'd want you to take care of me. You are the best caretaker.

[@susanadams8896]

You are so appreciated 🇺🇸

[@Alli_Sea]

Poor sweetheart. Dehydrated, scared, confused and one heck of a headache! How noisy that area was too - no doubt adding to her stress levels. All the while protecting her precious "cargo" and fighting for her own life from those damn birds attacking her. Meg you came along just at the right time to save them both. Sounds like good MOP's too. Very kind.

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

all of Meg's rescues seem to teach any MOP's around that batties are worthy of care , beautiful and interesting.

[@CristinaF210]

Meg is a warrior

[@anniekinsmishkamouse7575]

It is really nice how you educate those on scene and us at the same time. Glad no one was scratched. You have an amazing intuition and skill with these bats. Glad she and baby are in your care. I hope Sarah can recover. I laughed when Princess spit the dummy out, little feisty gal.

Saw Flying Foxes in the Columbus Zoo today (Columbus, Ohio, USA) and thought of you. Most darling animals ever!

[@Megabattie]

Yes, they have Malayan Flying-Foxes there, and little Golden Mantled Flying-Foxes I think.

[@geslinam9703]

Awww....good for the construction worker who took the shirt off his back for this bat. My kind of guy!

[@BuffyLynn]

This summer I heard high pitched little wailing noises out my back door and there was a Magpie attacking a baby bunny! I pretended I was Meg and brought it inside and made sure it had no wounds then put back under the shed where they usually have their babies. All those bully birds are big meanies!

[@Megabattie]

Well done, lucky little bunny baby for being rescued.

[@TheSharron]

Seems like Meg is teaching all of us...well done,Buffy.

[@helenscott8202]

Wow! Mother and baby together, without the mother dying as you arrive or shortly thereafter. Lovely!

[@lindarichmond3199]

That could have turned out very badly oh I'm so glad they called you and I hope this turns out okay for Sarah and Princess

[@jeanenehea]

What a lovely story so far, except for Sarah's stress and eye or near-eye injury. I appreciate the education you give MsOP, the concern and aptitude for your rescues that you show MsOP, the skilled care you give your batties, and your straightforward manner. Knowing to allow the little mammals time to calm andfor their adrenaline to fade, and meeting their analgesic needs is priceless. It's your knowledge AND experience that makes the difference in you.

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

I am constantly amazed how much detail you know to put into their care. Like when you put glucose on the dummy, put it in the babies mouth, with a "twirl" to get the taste moved around . Your experience and expertise keeps saving lives and you always TRY. Thanks Meg !!

[@dmp9021]

I'm always impressed with you Meg, you have very strong hands. Those big syringes are hard to push, at least for me, and you push the liquids in at such a controlled rate. Thank you for helping the Bats.

[@Megabattie]

I don't use the 60 ml syringes because my hands are too small to wield them effectively, but yes I have strong hands. But this week the case of champagne I opened had all really difficult corks to get out. I managed to do one cork with a lot of effort, then one had me totally defeated. I just couldn't budge it even with a grippy silicone thing. I was going to do my usual hack - and hack off the top of the cork with a carving knife and then use a corkscrew (I have done that before), then I remembered I have big girl tools, and I used some vice grips and just loosened it easily. The entire case had corks which were nearly impossible to get out with hand strength alone. One was difficult to get out with the vice grips. Never let a logistical issue get in between Meg and her Champagne.

Welcome to Megabattie Betty. I put information in the descriptions under the videos - so if you have questions, look for the answers there first. I also put updates there later if I find out what happened to the animal after it has left my care. There is a community tab (like a mini Facebook page) on my channel - if you go to Megabattie home page, there is a menu bar across the top under the cover pic. Home, Videos, Playlists, Community, About. If you click on the community tab there are posts there where I can share pix and talk about some of the videos I put up and answer questions. If you want to find out further videos of a specific bat - search in the YT search bar for Megabattie/name of bat.

Dang pecky dinosaurs! I hadn't ever heard of currawongs before; holy cow, that is a terrifying-looking beak. Interesting that they're not corvids, as early ornithologists thought. Also, I don't know if I'd heard flying foxes vocalize before this video; it's interesting to hear that it's not dissimilar to the sound effects Hollywood uses for them (though of course they also use those sounds for the ultrasonic microbats). Loved the adorable thumbnail. Great work as always, and thanks for what you do.

[@careyallen1736]

Meg you have the patients of a,saint

[@Megabattie]

I'm not a patient person, but I have to be for these ones. I have to just do it one step at a time and deal with it. I often think if I had to load human toddlers into a car I would go crazy - it takes so long and they're usually uncooperative and won't get into their seats and they lose their shoes or throw them somewhere, and all argue. I'd go insane if I had to deal with that on a daily basis.
