Much like other declining species, bats are struggling  to survive due to habitat loss. Deforestation plays a huge role in the destruction of bats' habitat, and this problem is only made worse by wildfires and other increasingly extreme weather conditions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeneficial Bats:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBats are an incredible asset to the ecosystem! Bats aid in pollination and seed dispersal, while also helping control the insect population. Since they eat so many insects, bats help farmers protect their crops, and they help protect trees from disease that's spread by insects. Bats also eat those pesky garden bugs and those mosquitos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Help:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach contribution you make could help support the purchase of\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(8, 62, 144);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ewildlife cameras\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(8, 62, 144);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecamera spikes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(8, 62, 144);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecamera locks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(8, 62, 144);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ebat sound recorders \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(8, 62, 144);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ebat houses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorking with our bat rescue and research partners we can ensure what is needed most will be sent.

Bats prefer small crevices to rest in and will roost in several places, but tree hollows are a favorite spot; these houses act as a replacement when bats in need can't find natural habitat. The recorders, cameras and camera gear\u003cspan\u003e help the researchers track bat behavior and calculate the scope of the population loss, giving them vital data to support recovery efforts. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: grid; grid-gap: 10px 10px; grid-template-columns: repeat(2, minmax(1px, 200px)); align-content: space-evenly; justify-content: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"grid-column: span 1; grid-row: span 1; flex-wrap: wrap;\"\u003e\u003cimg width=\"100%\" alt=\"[alt text here]\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/8248\/files\/0000_218970113_480x480.jpg?v=1629917557\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"grid-column: span 1; grid-row: span 1; flex-wrap: wrap;\"\u003e\u003cimg width=\"100%\" alt=\"[alt text here]\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/8248\/files\/0005_114310369_480x480.jpg?v=1629917788\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"grid-area: span 1 \/ span 1; flex-wrap: wrap; text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"grid-area: span 1 \/ span 1; flex-wrap: wrap; text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImpactful Stories:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese sweet baby bats were rescued in Florida and needed special attention and care.
