Adopt a Bat Species

Join the Movement to Protect Bats

Bats are facing unprecedented challenges, with many species experiencing sharp population declines due to White-nose Syndrome and ongoing habitat loss. Your adoption of a bat species can make a significant difference. Your contributions directly support our vital conservation efforts, research, and advocacy, providing the protection and resources these remarkable creatures need to survive and thrive.

Symbolically Adopt a Bat Species

By symbolically adopting a bat species, you become a crucial partner in our conservation efforts. Your monthly contribution of $5.00 supports habitat restoration projects, vital research to monitor and identify bat populations, and advocacy initiatives to strengthen and enforce protections for these important creatures. Your sponsorship helps us:

  • Restore and Preserve Habitats: Fund projects that rehabilitate and maintain habitats essential for bat survival and reproduction.

  • Conduct Critical Research: Enable research initiatives to locate, track, and study bat populations, providing essential data to inform our conservation strategies and to enforce legal protections.

  • Advocate for Protections: Support our advocacy work to implement and enforce regulations that safeguard bats and their environments. We reference the number of species sponsors and other supporters while advocating for bats!

Your ongoing support empowers us to plan, supply, and execute impactful efforts that ensure the survival of bats. Join us in making a lasting difference for these incredible animals that cannot advocate for themselves.
