A pair of baby bat “twins” were rescued shortly after their birth on the steps of a swimming pool in Queensland, Australia.This footage was posted online by Queensland-based Denise Wade, who has been
caring for injured baby bats for more than a decade.The flying foxes, named Triffid and Kraken, were rescued a month prior from the steps of a swimming pool when their mother died after having “just managed to give birth to [the] pair,” according to Wade.In her
description for the video, Wade said that Triffid was “very small for his age, but his appetite more than makes up for his tiny stature,” while Kraken was “growing nicely and doing everything he should be doing at this stage.”Attending to various injured bats at her home in Rochedale South, Wade regularly shares updates on the animals to her Batzilla the Bat
YouTube and
Facebook pages. Credit: Batzilla the Bat via Storyful
