Benedict and The Bats

Professor Russ Benedict, a biology professor from Central College, will be joining the WCCB crew and guests.

How many kinds of bats are in Iowa? Why are bats declining in population in Iowa? Iowa currently has two species listed as endangered and another being considered for listing. What is the estimated economic value of bats in the U.S.? And just how precise is the echolocation (or "sonar") of bats? The answers to these and MORE await people at this fun and interactive talk on some of the most fascinating animals living in our state!
