Where is Bat World?
Published in Daily Trivia
The national headquarters for Bat World Sanctuary is located at Mineral Wells, Texas. More than 150 bats from around the world have found permanent refuge in this indoor, natural habitat facility. These non-releasable bats include those that have been used in research, orphaned, permanently injured, or confiscated from the illegal pet trade. Bat World is a sanctuary as well as an educational center. The bats that participate in tours are only those that are not stressed while being viewed. During tours, bats can be seen close up, flying in simulated natural-habitat flight cages, and just "hanging out." Touching the bats is not permitted, but cameras are welcome. Actually, many of the bats are naturally curious and willing to be photographed.
