The Wonderful World of BATS!

The Wonderful World of Bats! – Welcome to the exotic world of bats. Learn how vital bats are to a healthy environment (did you know that a Little Brown Bat eats up to 1000 mosquitoes in one night?). Children move beyond old stereotypes, to an understanding of the importance of bats for farmers, fruit growers, the rain forest, and YOU! See AWESOME photos of tropical fruit bats, tiny bumblebee bat, vampire bat, Townsend’s Big Eared Bat, and Pallid Bat. Learn about echolocation calls, hibernation and migration. Children create a bat tee shirt. BRING YOUR OWN TEE SHIRT!
