Terrible hot sun causes bats to fall like a fig in Australia
Hundreds of bats fell from the sky to the ground during the record heat wave in Australia these days.
According to Express, Australian activists are rushing to set up a temporary hospital to help hundreds of bats of the world's largest bat , falling from the sky but fortunately surviving.
The hospital is located in Manoora, Cairns, Queensland state, Australia. Amanda Milligan and Jessie Smart will help the living bats and take away those who do not survive the record heat wave.
Hot sunshine exceeds 42 degrees Celsius, which makes it difficult for Australian bats.
Milligan told the Carins Post that she had never seen so many "fallen-like" bats so hot because of the heat. 'As soon as the temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, we see bats falling from the tree'.
'Here, 140 children died on November 26, and 40 more on November 27 , ' Milligan said.
The video posted on social networks Facebook shows that a large number of bats die from the hot sun . Bats lay motionless, along the way and around the trees.
Many bats and parents die because of the hot sun leaving behind orphans. To prevent this situation from continuing, Milligan and Smart bring alive bats to a cooler place, providing them with adequate drinking water and waiting for them to recover.
They also inject glucose bats to help stabilize blood sugar. Milligan said any volunteers willing to help are welcome.
Australian health officials warn people not to approach bats, if they do not know how to worry about someone biting or being bitten by a bat.
In fact, some people have been injured because bats 'fall off like figs' from the trees. Australian bats can carry lyssavirus (ABLV) , spread to humans through bleeding bites or scratches.
Australia is home to the world's largest bat, with dimensions up to 27cm in length.
