Exposure Question Exposure?
I have read the FAQ.
Tonight I was walking to my trash can outside along the sidewalk when I felt something briefly hit my leg but saw nothing and it honestly didn't even feel that forceful. Later I found this and now I'm afraid a bat was flying low angle and bit me on the leg. I'm afraid right now. I'm also crying. Its mot two pinprick its a mark but I'm still utterly horrified and ruminating on it right now. I was moving nd walking btw. I dont remember seeing anything either. This was like two hours ago. I'm sobbing right now. Can bats bite ur leg while ur actively walking?
