🦇 Meet the Bats! – Join Us for a Special Presentation on Bat Conservation 🦇
Did you know that bats are among the most misunderstood—and most important—wildlife in our region?
Join us for a fascinating presentation on bat conservation hosted in collaboration with Appalachian Corridor and their Bat Conservation of the Eastern Townships program.
You’ll learn:
🌿 How bats contribute to healthy ecosystems and agriculture
🧭 The difference between Quebec's migratory and cave-dwelling species
⚠️ The threats facing our local bat populations—like habitat loss and white-nose syndrome
🔬 How research, monitoring, and citizen awareness are helping protect these vital animals
🦇 Quebec is home to eight bat species, including the tri-coloured bat, little brown bat, and hoary bat. Many are now endangered or vulnerable due to disease and human impacts. Their survival is critical—not just for biodiversity, but for the health of our forests, farms, and insect control.
Thanks to new partnerships and dedicated biologists, the Appalachian Corridor is expanding its mission to safeguard bats with real, science-based conservation efforts. You’ll hear from experts, discover how you can help, and maybe even change the way you see these winged wonders.
👀 Let’s spread awareness, not fear.
❤️ Let’s protect what flutters in the night sky.
