    How it conceivably possible for any two-year old child, anywhere on the face of this entire earth, to get through a single day unharmed and without serious injury? There are innumerable ways for things to just go wrong. Yet, for most toddlers, they fare just fine on a daily basis. The same can be said about Industrious Mr. Bat; tripping, falling, thorns, sharp objects - danger is everywhere, but somehow he comes out unscathed, unharmed; in fact, he thrives! Just as a toddler, Mr. Bat had extra special love and affection from Mother Nature for whatever reason, but my guess would be, after meeting this kind gentleman, it was because of his innocent and almost childlike SINCERITY "Inside Caura".

    I haven't seen anything in the small space it inhabit to stimulate it's interest and provide occupational therapy. All wild birds have things that stimulate interest , provides play, helps with their need to groom themselves for peak health and conditioning.

    I love this set up, as I love being close to nature. This handsome mature man has an idyllic lifestyle. However, I am aware Trinidadians are infamous for cutting down trees, creating waste land an arrid areas. They kill wild life for fun and by devastating their natural habitat, this further destroy our eco system, which is our life force we depend on totally; for clean air, fresh clean water, the preservation of the soil , which sustain growth and stops flooding.
    We are already seeing soil erosion, water unable to penetrate into the ground. How does the govt allow people to continue living on land in an unsustainable way?
    Why isn't there an education programme in every village to provide its people with knowledge on a sustainable methods to care for and respect the land, rivers, waterway and natural wild life in our small island. We need to farm organically and not poison the soil (as well ) with fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides .
    In developing countries fast growing trees are specifically grown for charcoal .
    How can a tiny island afford to cut down trees that takes hundreds of years to grow for charcoal that burns within minutes for the most hours?
    Unbelievable how people on this small island exploit our small precious land; when larger countries ( many thousand time larger ), sustain their land and waters by educating their citizens, passing strict laws and planting thousands of trees every week. Just look it up if you doubt it.
    I am not saying this nice man is distroying our land, as I have no evidence of this.
