In a recent video uploaded on the center's Facebook Page, Depp is seen bottle-feeding the tiny 10-week-old bat while he asked the caretakers about the details of the animal's adventure into the world. He appropriately named the bat, "Jackie Sparrow".

"Here is a video of Dad bottle feeding his little orphaned baby. It's so fantastic to see him showing a genuine interest, and helping us raise awareness for bats," states the caption accompanying the video.
They also added that it "was at the end of a very busy day or shooting" for Depp as they are filming the "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" in Australia. He came to the clinic straight from the set still wearing his pirate costume.
