This “Batman” did not wear a cape and he did not come with the superhero mobile. On the contrary, the young hero had a school bag on his back and transported a helpless bat on the tram. “You’re amazing,” an animal rights activist says to the unknown boy, “please get in touch!”
A bat had a lot of luck in Gmunden on Monday. A young “Batman” found the weakened animal lying on the ground and brought it from the Igelhof Aurachtal wildlife station to Gabi Kaar – not with the “Batmobile”, but by tram. “I can’t drive yet,” he explained to Kaar on the phone.
“Please help me!”
“I was at a feeding session when my phone rang and someone said, ‘I found a bat. Everyone is coming along, please help me!’” says the animal rights activist, who met the previously unknown ‘Batman’ at the terminus of the Traunseetram.
School bag instead of cape
“Standing in front of me was a boy of about ten years old with a huge school bag on his back. He had the bat in one hand and the other was placed protectively over it,” says Kaar. “Unfortunately, I had to go to the veterinary clinic immediately after the transfer, otherwise I would have taken him home.”
Bat is “fit” again.
“So far the boy has not contacted us, otherwise I would have invited him to the game station,” says Kaar. The completely weakened bat was raised with fresh water and mealworms and has been fluttering through the Salzkammergut at night since Tuesday.
