WELCOME!
We are working on a project to investigate the cause and effect of wing tears on bats. Bats are important species within ecosystems, and many initiatives are directed at conserving bats within their natural habitats. Bats face a number of threats, one of the most significant being that of wing tears. Around 30% of bats admitted to rehabilitation centers have wing tear injuries. Our research is split into 3 main areas and further information can be found below. We are also looking for bat carers to get involved with our project so please click the 'Get Involved' button below for more information and to sign up.
