Hard to tell from photo but looks more like a Long eared bat than a horseshoe bat. Can't quite see the nose ridge that helps ID to species. If you have clearer pictures of the face could try ID to species.

PCS rangers would often drop road kill or animals injured and then shot in nature reserve. often found close to a management road. I used to pick up dead rabbits and in one case a dead hare without visible injuries, gave it to CSIRO or asked CSIRO to pick up after providing coordinates. Turned out that 2 rabbits and the one hare were killed by Calicivirus. The hare was killed by a naturally occurring strain that infects hares and rabbits. Typical position in death caused by Calicivirus shown by the hare Lepus capensis (Brown Hare) with comments by CSIRO about the virus.

It was so exciting to see a Rakali in the Lake again. It’s been a few years since I last saw one hear in Belconnen, ACT
