| 説明 | This is a Long Eared Myotis bat.Bats are an important part of the Pacific Northwest ecosystem and help with pest control. They eat enough bugs to save more than $1 billion per year in crop damage and pesticide costs in the United States corn industry alone.Our wildlife biologists from the Lakeview Field Office conducted capture surveys for bat monitoring during the summer of 2022. Capture surveys allow wildlife biologists to determine species, weight, sex, age, and reproductive status of each bat. “We can also identify whether the bat has potentially been exposed to the fungus that causes White Nose Syndrome,” said Kate Yates, Lakeview District wildlife biologist. “We can look at the wing membrane for color splotching, tissue damage, or excessive sloughing tissue that are signals of poor health.”Photographer credit Alyson Yates, BLM volunteer |
