Bat Flight Program

The Bat Flight Program is an effort to study and protect bats by capturing, recording, and releasing them to understand their behavior and ecology. Researchers use mist nets to safely catch bats, then record data such as species, age, and health before releasing them. The program helps scientists learn about bat populations, migration patterns, and habitats, which is essential for conservation and managing threats like habitat loss or disease. Overall, it’s a valuable tool for ensuring the health and sustainability of bat species and their ecosystems.
