Forest Management and Bats
More than 1,400 species of bats account for almost a quarter of all mammal species worldwide.
Bats are exceptionally vulnerable to population losses, in part because they are one of the slowest-reproducing mammals on Earth for their size, with most producing only one young each year.
For their size, bats are among the world’s longest-lived mammals. The little brown bat can live up to 34 years in the wild.
