BATS in the cellar!!!

Bats! Went down in an old cellar in the middle of nowhere. Smelled like something died in there. We stumbled upon tons of bats. I think we all have rabies now.

hopefully you didnt give the bats the fatal whitenose syndrome and hopefully you didn't get tagged

@zoologist1992 - is WNS in Colorado? Thought it was out on east coast. Noone was tagged, we only spent a few min down there.

Bat guano has a very unpleasant odor! It seems you don't come across too many tarantulas in your field work? I hear conflicting reports about populations in CO. In your opinion, would you say numbers are in decline, steady or growing?

[smetlogik]

@BradJC70 - we do see them in CO, mainly in the fall crossing the roads. I just don't take the time to put them on film.  I'm really guessing here since we don't keep data on inverts, but I'd say the population still seems healthy.

@smetlogik what does it not pay a lot of money?

[smetlogik]

@Asasaghghh  - depends, if you're doing some important research possibly.
