Bat nailed to the ground, doused in candle wax and killed in The Hague bunker

Bats in a remarkable condition have been found in a bunker in The Hague, which dates from the Second World War.

The discovery was made in mid-January by employees of the South Holland Mammal Working Group.

In the Westduinpark in The Hague, a battlefield has been created in a hibernation place for bats. They hibernate in bunkers from the Second World War and one of them has been broken into and bats have been killed. A bat was nailed down and doused with candle wax. The walls were defaced with Nazi symbols.
