This male, megabat black, had been shot four times by an air gun.
He has been living with these pellets for some time as the injuries had healed.
Three of the pellets were just under the skin. the fourth, right next to the spine.
An air gun (often called pellet gun or BB gun depending on the projectile) is any variety of pneumatic weapon that propels projectiles by means of compressed air or other gas, in contrast to firearms, which use a propellant charge. Both the rifle and pistol forms (air rifle and air pistol) typically propel metallic projectiles, either pellets, or BBs. - wikipedia.org / air gun
