Here are some of our past projects!
Global Work - Chile
Histiotus magellanicus captured in Karukinka National Park, Chile
THe southernmost bats
We literally go to the ends of the Earth for our winged friends! Patagonia is home to the southernmost bats of the world, and we traveled there to study how bats survive in these relatively cold, harsh environments.
Ohio - USA
Eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis)
identifying important habitat for red bats in ohio
White-nose syndrome has devastated bats in our home state. But there are still some left, and we’re always looking for more! A big part of the our work at home was determining where remnant populations of bats are found, why bats are still there, and protecting them.
Yellowstone National Park - USA

modeling occupancy of bat species in yellowstone national park
Lucky for us (but bad for bats!), there is still so much to learn about bats. Case in point, it’s unclear what bat communities look like for many places even in North America. Recently, we began a new study in Yellowstone looking at where certain species are found, and why.
