Nahanni Bats

During the summer of 2006, biologist Dr. Cori Lausen conducted ground-breaking research on bats in the South Nahanni Watershed.  Made possible through a partnership with Mountain Equipment Co-op, Parks Canada and CPAWS-NWT, Dr. Lausen and her Bat Team spent nearly a month determining which bat species call Nahanni home.  Nobody knew how many bat species might be found in the Nahanni, but we know now the answer is 7, possibly 8 – far more than expected for north of 60°!

Check out the bat poster we created to display Dr. Lausen’s bat research.
