Episode notes

Owdo cavers tell if there have been past bat parties by stain on the limestone. In one tennessee cave, it was down to 65 grey bats, and now it's up to a quarter million. There are many encouraging instances where we can see that we are re establishing hundreds of thousands of bats. We should be very concerned about caves that can be restored.

PART 2: The stunning conclusion of a 3-hour gab session about frickin' bats with America's favorite chiropterologist, Dr. Merlin Tuttle. Learn about bat conversations, their close friendships, surprising dongs, where they keep their nipples, how to go bat spotting after the sun sets, more myths and misconceptions about bat danger, perhaps the grossest thing Merlin has ever put in his mouth, how to hang up a bat house for maximum bat party funtimes, the latest on white nose syndrome and how it feels to get slapped by a bat. Once again: Indiana Jones can get bent because Dr. Merlin Tuttle is the hero this nation needs.
