Tennessee Saves Bats for Farmers

Tennessee’s bat rescue mission is flying high—thanks to new laws legalizing bat rehabilitation, these insect-eating heroes are getting second chances and helping farmers save billions. At Lillie Birds in Nashville, rehabber Devon Blackburn treats injured bats with care, noting rabies risk is minimal (less than half of one percent). Releases at Shelby Bottoms are pure magic, with 16 bat species soaring back into the wild. If you find a bat, don’t touch—box it and call a pro. These tiny flyers? Vital to our economy and ecology.
