Episode Details

In Rome, a passionate group called Tutela Pipistrelli is building safe havens for bats displaced by urban sprawl and climate change, rescuing species like the common pipistrelle and Egyptian fruit bat from extinction. Volunteers feed, monitor, and rehabilitate these vital ecosystem engineers—often overlooked but crucial for insect control and pollination—while assessing their flying skills to prep them for release. This grassroots effort highlights Italy’s urgent need to protect biodiversity, proving that dedicated humans can turn temporary shelters into lifelines for wildlife in a rapidly changing world.
