We have bats not much bigger than that in Texas.

I was once at a UT football game in Austin. I spotted what I thought was a huge cockroach on the concourse. I looked closer and saw it was a tiny bat all folded up. It may have been sick, or it may have fallen from under the grandstands above.

The things can carry rabies, so I figured it should be removed since there were hundreds of people around.

I wasn't going to touch it, so I went and told a cop.

He came over, looked at the bat for a moment, then stomped on it.

Hell, I could have done that!
