Detailed Description

A group of sleeping Indiana bats, Myotis sodalis. MACA used to be home to one of the biggest bat hibernacula in the world, hosting 1 million+ bats. The arrival of white nose syndrome, however, has greatly reduced their numbers. Photo courtesy of Kendall Wheeler; photographer Rick Olson/NPS.
