He was found on the side of a jazz club in downtown Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n<p>The bat was fairly emaciated at only 5.2 grams (about 0.18 ounces) and dehydrated. He was fed a mixture of <a href=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/emeraid-carnivore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EmerAid IC Carnivore<\/a> for 48 hours prior to introducing solid food.<\/p>\n<p>After the 48 hours, we carefully trained him how to eat mealworms out of a bowl on his own so that we could allow him to recover without disturbance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-12033\" src=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/wp-content\/uploads\/bat-in-hand-harp-231221-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"tricolored bat in towel held in gloved hands\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/wp-content\/uploads\/bat-in-hand-harp-231221-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/wp-content\/uploads\/bat-in-hand-harp-231221-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/wp-content\/uploads\/bat-in-hand-harp-231221-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/wp-content\/uploads\/bat-in-hand-harp-231221.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Tricolored bats are endangered in Pennsylvania and are not accustomed to being around people, so we had to take precautions to minimize his stress while he was in care. This included giving him many places to hide in his enclosure.<\/p>\n<p>Once he fully recovered and was up to 9.6 grams (about 0.34 ounces) in weight, he was able to be released into Point State Park on September 14.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An endangered tricolored bat gets help from Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh due to emaciation and dehydration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":12028,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12026","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Tricolored Bat Found!
