Saving Bats from Decline

Resources to empower conservation activities for bats

Bats are a unique group of animals with ecological, economical and cultural significance around the world

Bats are ubiquitous, with 1,300 species living on every continent but Antarctica. Insectivorous bats save agriculture billions of dollars through predation of agricultural pests. Other bats eat fruit and nectar, acting as pollinators and are essential to the success of many food products like tequila and chocolate, consequently contributing to the global economy.
Bat conservation projects have the potential to excite and engage employees and community members in activities that benefit local bat populations, challenge myths and elicit new cultural and scientific understanding about these creatures. On this page, you’ll find a wide variety of WHC resources available to help companies take action for bat conservation. Contact WHC Consulting for custom guidance.
