Once our inventory is depleted we will no longer carry bats. There isn’t a clear ethical way to source bats and when we purchased our stock from a retired oddities seller we were not made completely aware of the unethical sourcing despite people who sell bats stating that it was from bat farms or under the guise of pest control when that is not always truly the case. We want to preserve items to celebrate the life of an animal, not destroy them for the sake of art. Due to this we will NOT be buying any more bats in the future once our stock is finished. We do encourage Schools and Educators to contact us if they would like to purchase for Educational purposes, we will be happy to discount any specimens being used for educational purposes.
Please note: Pictures are examples of the ONE you will be receiving. They are shipped at random.
W4j #15 This is a beautiful nicely showcased bat in a floating frame! This is a very nicely done display and would look in any collection or for educational purposes! The frame is 8 x 6 x 1" and is black frame with a glass front. This will keep your display clean and fresh for years to come as well as allow you to open for examination.
