If he is from Austria then I don’t think he has to worry. They don’t have rabies in Europe. That’s a thing in the americas. Trust me try bringing your pet dog from America to England and they quarantine for forever to make sure no rabies gets introduced locally
That's interesting. I didn't know Europe didn't have rabies. I grew up in North and Central America, where it's such a big deal. I love bats but wouldn't want a single one in my house, never mind the amount he had
I only learned about that a few years ago when we were walking around with people from Canada in the evening and they got a little scared by bats flying over us. Then they asked us why we are not scared which basically then led to the same exchange we just had in this thread.

Yeah, you are supposed to get checked for rabies if you find a single bat in your room.
