Darke County Parks
Bats of Ohio
program Saturday
Bat populations have seen dramatic declines over the past several
years. Due to the impact White Nose Syndrome has had, some
species have seen up to 98% winter hibernacula loss. Darke County
Parks is participating in the efforts to save these important ions of
our ecosystem by participating in bat acoustic surveys and
monitoring. We also have the most modern technology for detecting
bat echolocation frequencies. Join us for an evening discovering
the importance and status of the Bats of Ohio and our role in
monitoring local populations. Join a park naturalist on Saturday
August 25 for the Bats of Ohio program. We will begin at Shawnee
Prairie Preserve at 8pm. Please pre-register by calling the
Nature Center at 548-0165.
