Think about it. You’re camping with friends. Just hanging out having a
good time.
You pull out your guitar for a little jamming’ action and just as you’re
getting into it, a rabid bat swoops out of nowhere and bites you on the
neck!
Yep, and not only that, one of your camping mates get the whole thing on
video.
That’s what happened to Oregon resident Derickk Skou while he was
camping in Clackamas County, Washington state.
“This thing came out of nowhere,” Derrick Skou said. “I was thinking it
was a good day until then.”
“Something hit me. I was concentrating on staying in time and all that
and it hit me here and I kind of saw something out of my peripheral vision.
And then it's there and then it just bit me,” Skou said.
The bat latched onto his shirt, near his shoulder, then crawled up to his
neck.
"It was like a cold dog nose,” Skou said as he described his brief
encounter with the bat. “It was a cold bat nose, mouth, whatever. It
didn't sting. I wasn't injected with anything. It was just a cold bite.”
The bat then camped in a tree before coming down twice more to try and
attack Skou.
Fortunately, he was only bit the one time before a friend shot the bat
with a BB gun.
The bat ended up being rabid, something Skou only found out later.
