They hang upside down, fly by night, and some of them drink blood?! Bats get a bad rap – but are they really as scary as they seem?
On today's Vermont Edition: Bats! It’s the latest installment of our March series, Animal Hour. Bats play a vital role in our ecosystems. But some species are endangered, and others are being threatened by disease. A small mammal biologist with Vermont Fish and Wildlife studies the bat species in our region. She’ll share fun facts about bats, and explain why they’re so important.
We’ll also talk with a bat rehabilitator and founder of the Vermont Bat Center. He’ll tell us how to help injured or orphaned, or trapped bats.
