Flying fox

[den]

I couldn't do it. I had to take the flying fox out to the zoovets. Tim looked at the wing, shook his head and said "There's only one result here."

They gassed her to sleep, then Jane injected the lethobarb. It took the bat about 10 seconds to die.

I wonder if they'll give me a mask like that for my EU duties. It's better then the old toilet roll with a wad of tissue paper in one end.

I'm sorry you had to put her down, but at least it was painless. You did the right thing. Maybe someday you'll find a less injured flying fox (though I'd prefer there be no injured bats at all) and help it instead. It's never easy to euthanize a wild creature.
