Austin Bat Refuge is proud to promote respect for bats and their place in the environment through rehabilitation and release, conflict resolution, and education.

Even in Austin, the bat capital of North America, bats continue to be feared and misunderstood. Fear of the unknown is embedded deep in the human psyche. But, thanks to the work of dedicated scientists and conservation organizations like Austin Bat Refuge, knowledge about and appreciation for bats is emerging from the darkness.
