BATS in Long Beach!

The LB Heath Department wants to remind us NOT to handle wildlife...BATS were recently found dead in the Downtown LB area and they tested positive for rabies.

Direct contact with BATS should be avoided. If you find a dead bat - contact Animal Care Services @ 562-570-7387 for retrieval and testing. If you think you may have been bitten, seek medical attention immediately. Bats have very small teeth and sometime you cant even see the bite.
