A grey long-eared bat was rescued by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) on Monday, August 14, 2017 after being found grounded in Merriott, Somerset, England. She was taken in by the charity’s West Hatch Wildlife Centre, in nearby Taunton, where staff member and bat expert India Long has taken the tiny 5g mammal under her wing. She’s about the size of a ping pong ball and weighs only 5g which is about 2g less than she should. There were signs she would still have been dependent on her mother and she likely would not have survived if left. Photo: RSPCA/PA.
