Who would have ever thought bats could be interesting in some way? Once we caught a few, we were fascinated, and we also were sure there was much to learn about Laguna de Apoyo Nature Reserve through them. We conduct a monitoring program on the wildlife in which one segment deals with bat diversity. Our volunteers Lukas and Soren have been very busy with this study.
