A lot of people think they don't like bats. If you're one of them, you need to watch this video!
Bats tend to have a negative stereotype connected to them, but if you're ever seen a baby bat, that negative connotation might change! Not only are bats vital for most ecosystems, many of them are truly gentle, sweet animals.
In Australia, Flying Fox bat colonies are under threat. Habitat destruction, along with increasing heat, is causing the species extreme stress, and in this video, a bunch of babies who lost their mothers due to extreme heat have arrived at the Australian Bat Clinic.
Because these babies were separated from their moms while they were still forming bonds, carers at the Australian Bat Clinic need to make sure they're not only fed, but feel secure as well. That's where these adorable blankets come in!
The way these babies react to human touch is just adorable – and it proves yet again how emotional even the smallest creatures can be.
