It’s nothing but net for our WRD Bat Biologists! 🦇🦇

Using nets to get bats… Why? This survey was completed to record the age, species, and reproductive status, which can better determine the overall abundance and diversity of the local colony. By using very fine mist nets, this team can safely catch and handle species such as Eastern reds, Big browns, and Southeasterns!
