An Australian mother of two said she was forced to flee her home in Edmonton, Queensland, after thousands of bats died on her lawn.

“It was a scene out of a horror movie and there is still putrefied rotting carcasses everywhere,” Philippa Schroor, the woman, told the Cairns Post. She’s one of the dozens of residents who have had to find temporary housing as a heat wave in Queensland killed thousands of bats.
