Found this little dude clinging to our tree outside as if he just landed there and perished. Already nearly mummified and pretty stiff. I was gonna put him in a jar of formaldehyde but he was pretty far gone. Makes me wonder what happened to him.

White nose?


Stop over cooking your meat! It isn’t gamey, it’s over cooked!

I was thinking of the white nose. It seems prevalent in our area and they shut down Barton cave because of it

Yeah with gloves. I may be bat poop crazy but I’m not a complete moron.
It’s so decrepit I doubt it has anything transmissible anyways

I've been lucky enough to have 2 different bats come through the wing glass on my old Ford. Got rabies and tetanus shots for both occasions.
