BatPod is a choose your own adventure series for ages 10 to 15 where you get to call the shots.
Here on the Sunshine Coast, we live in one of the most beautiful parts of the planet and we get to share it with some amazing creatures. Sometimes it can be hard living near them – take flying foxes for example. These animals are vital to our environment but they can be noisy, smelly and messy neighbours.
You're invited to join Tyron, and our team at Sunshine Coast Council, to try and problem solve ways to live alongside these animals peacefully.
Proudly created by Sunshine Coast Council for our community. Voiced by Tyron de Kauwe, Uncle Lyndon Davis, Uncle BJ Murphy, Sarah Jones, Monika O’Hanlon. Produced by Monika O’Hanlon.

So we’ve created the buffer and that’s definitely improved the situation. And as it was only 30 Batty Bucks, it means we still have money left in the budget… Now you want to do some Education which only costs 15 Batty Bucks. We’ll have to organise some school talks, do some interviews on radio, television, share resources online, create video content, maybe start up a podcast – let’s get the word out about why flying-foxes are so important – stat!
As Sam and other members of the community learnt more about flying-foxes you created a sense of empathy. And although it hasn’t removed the situation it has defused it a little.
Because you’ve only spent 55 Batty Bucks, you can afford to create a new habitat – which will hopefully make the situation better in the future. So let’s cracking, head to episode 13.
