Biology Club Visits 20 Million Bats




The Biology Club visited Bracken Bat Cave, owned and managed by Bat Conservation International (BCI), to witness the emergence of 20 million Mexican free-tailed bats. This is truly one of the natural wonders of the world! Thanks go to our own David DeLuna, Trinity Safety and Security officer, for arranging our trip through BCI and the Bexar Grotto Society. Fran Hutchins, of BCI, provided an informative tour on the Mexican Free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis), as well as information on the restoration efforts of BCI.
