Congratulations to our 2023 2nd Quarter Grant winner: Robin Rowland - “Impacts of Urban Living on Insectivorous Bats” More information about this project can be found on our website: holohil.com/grant-recipien…

Is it just me or do myotis macropus look like little gnomes? *Please never handle bats if you are not trained or vaccinated against Rabies, it causes so much paperwork.*

Little Forest Bats are one of Australia’s tiniest mammal species and equally importantly- very cute. Thanks for the opportunity to write about them Cosmos! Vote for them in the Australian Mammal of the Year competition: cosmosmagazine.com/nature/amoty/l…

3 bats made the Top 10 for this years Cosmos Australian Mammal of the Year! Sadly the ghost bat was eliminated for the top 8, but let’s keep the other bats in the running! Vote here: cosmosmagazine.com/nature/amoty/a… instagram.com/p/Cv6-E7jxCCI/…

If you know where microbats (tiny insect eating bats, not the larger, noisy flying foxes) are living in QLD Australia, I want to know! I’m at the begging for help from the public stage of my PhD 🦇 #batresearch #CitizenScience #queenslandscience #australianbats #bats

The Golden-tipped bat is the 2023 Australian Mammal of the Year! This now means that a #bat has won 2 years in a row!! This is HUGE for bringing awareness to Australia’s Chiropteran critters! cosmosmagazine.com/nature/amoty/t…

Always a pleasure watching the fabulous Rachel Lyons teach carers how to rescue and rehabilitate microbats- 85 people in person and over zoom this year! Thanks to Australia Zoo for hosting the workshop.

Some 10/10 reporting on this breaking wildlife shenanigans story: “Koalas are known to have poor long-distance eyesight and Mr Herington said Claude had been short-sighted in this instance. [The seedlings were destined for Landcare groups]” abc.net.au/news/2023-09-0…

Artificial light can have negative impacts on a range of wildlife, including bats. Learn more about the impact of artificial light on bats here: bats.org.uk/about-bats/thr…

Getting bats some better PR one news story at a time! Thanks for the feature of my PhD research 7News 🦇

Fishing bats well represented! Robin Rowland showed culvert & rock roosts occupied by Myotis are thermally stable, while building & fabric roosts are more variable #AusBatSoc2024

Had an amazing time at the Australasian Bat Society talking about some of my favourite bat roosts I’ve studied this year 🦇

So excited to get to participate in GBatNet’s important work as a student scholar this year!
