Bats may be commonly associated with a superhero, but these often-misunderstood mammals are facing many threats, including habitat loss and a fast-spreading fungal disease called white-nose syndrome.
Shine the bat signal and do your part to help Canada’s declining bat populations.
1. Build and install a bat box.
2. Become a bat watcher by converting your smartphone into a bat detector.
3. If you have to remove bats from your house, use humane practices and/or keep them from re-entering your home.
4. Learn more about how you can do your part to protect bats, and share your story on social media by using #MySmallAct.
Across Canada, NCC staff inventory the plants and animals on our properties and remove any invasive species, along with the help of our Conservation Volunteers. By doing so, we're improving habitats for native plants and animals.
