Bat Week (October 24–31) is an international celebration that shines a light on these fascinating creatures. And as the nights grow longer and Halloween creeps closer, it’s the perfect time to celebrate the mysterious and magical world of bats.
Often misunderstood, Bats are amazing creatures that play a vital role in the health of our natural world. Although we may not always see them, bats are hard at work all around the world each night - eating tons of insects, pollinating flowers, and spreading seeds that grow into new plants and trees.
