Bat Signal

Bat radiotracking

I was tracking bats in residential areas near Toronto’s High Park. We try to understand how bats use space in urban environments. Mainly where they feed at night and where they roost (bat resting location) during the day. Understanding how wildlife use space in urban environments may help us to plan networks of green spaces better in the future. Importantly it helps us understand if wildlife are even using existing green spaces in the way we think they are!
