Description

Cumberland Gap National Historical Park (CUGA) contains over 30 caves and is home to at least six species of cave dwelling bats, including the federally endangered Indiana bat and the federally threatened northern long-eared bat. Currently the park has very limited information on the status and distribution of these cave dwelling bats. Today, white nose syndrome (WNS), documented in the park in January of 2013, threatens all six of these cave dwelling bat species. The park proposes to complete an intensive inventory of bat populations; mist net surveys, harp trapping, and radio telemetry surveys. This information will be critical in order to make informed management decisions about actions that might impact these populations and to protect these threatened vulnerable species into the future.
