Even when bats take off the winter to hibernate, they still need our help! We can protect hibernating bats by taking proper safety precautions, avoiding closed off caves, and being aware of white nose syndrome- the deadly disease harming thousands of hibernating bats! Take the time to read through our safety tips, and share them with others! The more educated everyone becomes about how to protect bats, the greater chance we have of protecting this endangered species. #Batchat #Bringbackthebats
