Indiana Bat
Myotis sodalis
The Indiana Bat forages for insects at the tops of trees and along forest edges.
This species is federally classified as endangered due to human disturbances of caves during their hibernation period and the emergence of White-nose Syndrome.
Half of the New York State’s Indiana Bat populations live in a single abandoned mine.
These bats sport a 10-inch wing span and 2-inch long bodies, weighing in at just a quarter of an ounce.
