Statler, an Indian flying fox, was born at a zoo in 1987. Since then, he's moved from facility to facility. For many years, he was kept in a small space and used for "education." When he arrived at Bat World Sanctuary in 2018, his caretakers made sure he’d have a happy and peaceful retirement.

To help save more bats like Statler, you can support Bat World Sanctuary here: thedo.do/batworld, and check them out on Facebook: thedo.do/batworldsanctuary.

Statler passed at the age of 34 but I bet his last few years with his caregiver were the BEST years of his life. He crossed the rainbow bridge knowing he was loved and cared for!!!!! Love it!!!!

The caregiver is a GEM, letting him fly around with her assistance, it's people like her that make the world a beautiful place to be....

As a former bat rescuer and carer let me tell that bats are super intelligent, loving and caring. They are just the sweetest creatures.

He’s like a Chihuahua with wings. I am so glad that he got to live to his true potential. That is evidence of the power of love.

Dear Statler passed away in July 2021 at the age of 34. He was preceded in death by his roost mate Chessie earlier that month. So glad that they got to live out their final years unstressed, well fed, and loved.

The fact that they hold him and fly him around is adorable. What great caregivers.

This little old man makes me smile and cry. He seemed like a sweetheart. I love flying foxes. They get treated poorly for just being a bat and considered a pest. They are sweet, loveable, adorable sky puppies. I love the trios morning meetings.

He’s found bat heaven: plenty of food, no predators, and very caring assistants! Given his age and injuries, he’s more than earned his peaceful retirement!

Letting him "fly" was the cutest thing I've seen this month.

You guys pretending to take the bat flying.... the height of human kindness. We definitely aren't bad things and humanity needs defending

This poor guy probably struggled for food and warmth all his life, now in his golden years is gorging like a king in a warm palace and being cared for by warm hands. Having a couple old chums from the same species to "hang" with is a bonus! I hope he lives a long and "fruitful" life.

These people are angels. Screw celebrities and athletes. THESE are the people doing important things.

This one is going in my playlist of favorites! Continue letting him fly like other bats do... let him spread his wings and soar high above trees, mountains and valleys!

My brother brought home a Little Brown Bat one day from work. I ended up keeping him til the next spring and let him go free in his old home area. I raised flour weevil young to feed him, he loved them. He never once bit or even tried to bite me, he was quite intelligent. His name was Vlad.
