Found bat!! What do I do!
I found the cutest bat on the sidewalk of my school at 730 am this morning. I was on my way to class so I couldn’t really stick around but I picked him up (with gloves) and put him on a tree. I did a quick search for bat rescues in my area and found nothing! Just critter removal which I’m not calling!
I have no idea what to do. He was moving slowly but I didn’t see any obvious injuries. It was cold ~45 degrees so i don’t know if that’s why he was slow… help I don’t know their behavior and I’m worried about him.
What do I do?!

What kind of bat is this? It’s tiny. Taos, NM. It seems to be caught in a web. How do I free it?

Advice needed baby pipistrelle bat
Can anyone help me with a baby pipistrelle bat? It was on the side of my shed all day and into the evening (when, if it was ok, it should have flown away?) I contacted bat protection who advised me to put it in a box and take it to a vet. However, I’m concerned that it needs specialist treatment and the vet will not have time to find someone as there doesn’t appear to be any volunteers in this area. Anyone?
Posted on behalf of my mother in Scotland. She can take to a vet tomorrow however she lives in a very isolated area and needs advice as to what to do before then. There are no emergency animal rescue people in the area.

Found bat

This bat was found hanging on the living room wall at a friend's place this morning.
It was in usual bat sleeping position hanging from the wall.
I placed a box over him and gently got him into it, his wings immediately went to full extension.
He's slowly been waking up. He got actand chirpy and peed on my glove when I moved him into he ventilated box, then he calmed down again.
Current plan:
He's in a safe box with ventilation and seems to be resting. Going to contact a bat rehab person and see if she will take him for observation before releasing him back into the wild.
Update: shortly after dusk this evening I carefully got the bat out of the box and held him up to a tree until he finally decided to climb off my hand and scrambled up the tree to hide behind a piece of loose bark.
Later I checked and he was gone, presumably having flown away.
