And finally, this is our master of all things bat catching, Mr. Kirk Silas. Kirk has over 10 years of bat handling experience under his belt and pretty much makes our project run. Without Kirk, there would be no bats!

As part of an WCS study to understand WNS and the bioenergetics of hibernation in the West, our field team is working hard this fall. Follow the team's progress and adventures Science4Bats!

Our work was featured in the New York Times!

Getting to know western #bats is critical for helping to increase their odds of survival in face of deadly white-nose syndrome. #WCS is on it, as featured in The New York Times ow.ly/WsaO50lJ5mK

Great to see familiar faces in the video and proud to be working with the WCS Congo Wildlife Health Programme!

'If the US had comparable COVID-19 death rates with most high-mortality countries (i.e. UK, Spain, Sweden) beginning May 10, it would have had 44,210-104,177 fewer deaths.' ja.ma/3iUd06I
