Raisin Rabbit to the rescue!

Noctule at Sussex Bat Hospital
Not a spaniel
Today I am on the Bat Conservation Trust's National Bat Helpline, helping rescue bats that are in trouble.  (Not trouble as in they have been naughty, I mean dangerous trouble).  Calls are coming in from all over the country about grounded bats and injured bats and bats in houses: scarey stuff!  Some need to get to bat hospital as quickly as possible.  Being a spaniel, I have nerves of steel and am quite calm under pressure - ideally suited to this work and to bat detection generally.  Sadly, this is not true of all dogs.
