Adopt a Bat
Adopt a Bat
There are 18 species of bat in the UK, 17 of which are known to be breeding on our shores. All 18 species of bat are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act.
A reduction in food source is a major threat to bats. The use of pesticides, intense farming, and habitat loss, have all reduced the number of insects on which bats rely as their food source.
By adopting a bat you will help us successfully treat and safely return numerous bats back to the wild.
What’s included in your bat adoption pack
Not only will you be providing invaluable care and helping countless animals, but you will also receive an exclusive bat adoption pack, including cuddly toy, species brochure, certificate of adoption, photo and more. NOTE: The pack will include either ‘The Owl with the Golden Heart’ book or ‘Wildlife SOS’ book, dependent on stock.
How your adoption will help
Bats play an important role in the ecosystem. Many plants depend, partly or wholly, on bats to pollinate their flowers or spread their seeds; they play a vital role in protecting our environment. Therefore, it’s imperative we do everything we can to safely return as many bats as possible, back to the wild.
The bats admitted to our rescue centre have, usually, either been caught by a predator or disturbed during building work. It’s our duty, as a charity, to save and get them back to the wild.
By adopting a bat, you will help us successfully treat and safely return numerous bats back to the wild.
