Save Lucy the BAT Live Skype

Yesterday we had the amazing opportunity to Skype live with Leslie Sturgis, Author of Lucy's Story.  We learned all about her organization Save Lucy the Bat and what she does to help orphaned bats recover.  One of the messages she gave us was to help inform others of the importance of these little creatures in our ecosystem.  We also learned about White Nose Syndrome, a fungus that grows around the bats nose, irritates the bat which awakens it out of hibernation, causing the bat to use the energy it's stored for the winter too early. The bat is unable to survive the winter and dies. Our class will be learning about bats and completing conservation projects to spread the knowledge about these amazing creatures.
