2017 Sydney: Baby Flying-Fox
We found this injured, tiny baby, Flying-Fox, or fruit bat, in the yard this morning. She was unable to move.
WIRES came and collected her, estimating she was 3-5 weeks old. She had a previously broken wing which had set badly and she was unable to fly.
Not sure how she ended up in our inner Sydney backyard, but after being fed and given saline, the person from WIRES said she had a good chance of survival.
WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.) has been rescuing and caring for native animals since 1985, officially launching as an organisation in March 1986. Our mission is to actively rehabilitate and preserve Australian wildlife and inspire others to do the same.
