Bat World Sanctuary
Saturday, 19 June 2021
In 1989, Amanda Lollar discovered a bat dying on the sidewalk. Distressed that any creature should have to expire in such a way she took it home to allow it a dignified send off.
However the bat, which she christened Sunshine, survived due to Amanda’s care and was the catalyst for Bat World Sanctuary, which Amanda founded in 1994.
This short film by Brett Kessler takes a peek in to this world of injured, orphaned, and non-releasable bats in Mineral Wells, Texas.
