Let's kick off International Bat Night (weekend) a day early!
International Bat Night is observed by around 30 countries to bring to light the need for preserving this nocturnal species. International Bat Night started in 1997 as a way to inform the public about the needs and benefits of bats in nature. This annual observance helps to promote the good image of bats and busting some myths and providing clarity on them.
Join us for a discussion all about bats (and why we love them). Stick around for a short, guided walk with a bat detector to see if we can see/hear any of our only flying mammal friends.
