Manitoba’s Endangered Bats

Date: 

Tuesday, February 4, 2025

Presenter: 

Dr. Craig Willis

Like other wildlife, Manitoba’s bats face familiar threats like habitat loss but in the last 15 to 20 years, two new impacts have emerged causing devastating declines. The invasive fungal disease, white-nose syndrome, has killed millions of hibernating bats in its spread across North America and we have lost ~80% of the once-common little brown bat in Manitoba.
