What comes to mind when you hear the word “bats”? 

Do you automatically think about Hollywood horror movies or are you reminded of the important role these flying mammals play in our eco-system?

In this episode of Wild About Wildlife, host Kathy Mueller chats with two volunteer members of Salthaven Wildlife’s Bat Squad about the bad rap bats get and why we should all be installing bat boxes and encouraging them to live in our communities.
