Wildlands Conservancy – Pre-Volent Appalachian Bat Count

Event Description: Go batty with Wildlands Conservancy! Pennsylvania’s common bat species often use buildings as their roosts and the barn at Dorothy Rider Pool Wildlife Sanctuary is one of their favorite haunts. Monitoring locations like ours gives biologists an idea of how bat populations are doing. Studies have shown that while little brown bat populations have dropped precipitously due to White Nose Syndrome, big brown bat populations have increased.
