Bat Cave Update

The Old Tunnel Wildlife Management Area has sent word that July is the “maternity” time for bats as the mother bats leave for maternity caves to tend to their new pups, at least until August when the pups are weaned and flying. What’s this mean for visitors? It means the bats that are exiting the caves now are fewer and they are doing so later in the evening, to adjust to the heat – so schedule your bat-viewing outings for later than the usual 8:30 p.m. timeframe. For information, call 866-978-BATS (2287).
