Bats in their belfry
Well, attic anyway. In Green Township a local church, the Tranquility Methodist Church, has an issue. Some 350 big brown bats have begun calling their attic home. People gather around to watch them fly off into the night to feed on insects (including mosquitos) and take pictures and videos. Local groups including Antler Ridge Wildlife Sanctuary and Biologist MacKenzie Hall from the Conserve Wildlife Foundation are trying to find a way to move the current tenants in a non-lethal way. These bats really are too cute AND they perform a great service to local areas that have them keeping the flying bug population down. Click here to watch the report.
