    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have 2 wild caught bats from pensacola florida. Not sure on species or sex. They were found sleeping together. Both appear in good health, I will answer any questions I can. Thanks for looking.
 
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure its also illegal to sell wild caught bats in Florida.
 
In Florida, all bats are classified as native non-game wildlife by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and are protected by law from wanton destruction. Two species in Florida bats (the Indiana bat and the gray bat, both of which generally do not occur in buildings) are classified as endangered species by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The Florida bonneted bat is currently listed as a Federally threatened subspecies. (source - http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/pdffiles/MG/MG34200.pdf)

A permit issued by the state is required in order to take native wildlife.

I suggest you let these beneficial creatures go asap before FWC gets wind of what your trying to do.
 
If they are on of the migratory species, there are likely federal regulations that are being violated here, too.
