Lyceum Speaker Series: Where Have All the Bats Gone? on January 29th

Tim Krynak, Natural Resources Project Manager at Cleveland Metroparks, discusses the devastating environmental impacts of white-nose syndrome. First documented in 2006 in New York State, white-nose syndrome was discovered in Ohio in 2011. Regionally, the disease has killed over 95% of some bat species. Mr. Krynak will also detail efforts by scientists to treat and revitalize decimated bat populations.
