Endangered Bat Studies
Keep Your Projects Moving
Our team is available to help you navigate the intricacies of Section 7 Endangered Species Act consultations, in-particular, the complexities of endangered bat studies and compliance. All bat studies are conducted by lead bat biologist Jason Robinson, who has over 15 years of experience conducting acoustic and mist-netting surveys. He is also active in many of the state and regional working groups and committees.
If threatened or endangered bats such as the Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalis), Northern Long-Eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis), or Tri-Colred Bat (Perimyotis subflavus) are found in your area, or are impacting your project, we are here to help.
We offer a full range of services including initial habitat assessments (Phase 1), mist-netting surveys, and acoustic surveys. Our team travels throughout the the United States, with experience surveying in Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, West Virginia, and Missouri . We are also dedicated to continuing education and outreach opportunities throughout the country that help to ensure the survival of some of our most delicate species.
In addition to summer presence/absence surveys, we are also qualified and experienced in the evaluation of potential winter habitats such as caves and abandoned mine portals, and are equipped to safely evaluate these environments for the presence of bats.
Additionally, we are available to host hands-on training workshops for those interested in learning more about the bat survey process, or building their bat handling and tracking skills.
Contact us today for an initial consultation or to schedule a site visit.
