Obviously no one cares much... but here's another source

Mass deaths at about 25 separate colonies have been reported since the weekend, including at Mt Ommaney, Redbank, Boonah, Palmwoods, Laidley and Gatton.

RSPCA spokesman Michael Beatty says the heatwave was a significant hit to the population of bats across the state.

"The heatwave was basically a catastrophe for all the bat colonies in south-east Queensland," he said.

"That's obviously going to have a pretty disturbing impact on those colonies and those colonies are vital to our ecosystem."

Re: 100,000 bats fall dead from the sky during a heatwave in Australia
I doubt it was the heatwave that caused them to fall dead. I know bats are sensitive especially to temperatures but this doesn't sound right. Isn't it usually hot down there? Or at least pretty warm? These bats probably were used to the temperatures for that climate...

yes it is hot for our summer 40 degrees C last week, but no.. the report is wrong... it would have been on the news... nothing

the only environmental news at the moment is

1. WA wants to cull the sharks
2. They want to put a huge dredge through the barrier reef for the transport of yellow cake
3. The dam-container collapse in the daintree rainforest of radioactive sludge at a uranium mine...

= no bat doom
 Quoting: Citizenperth


screw the bats, we are going through a 4 day heatwave in melb of 43 degrees celsius :(

water please!
SO MANY ASSHOLES....SO FEW LIGHT SABERS!
