Ontario Bat Field
Techniques
Course
The course will cover bat capture and handling techniques commonly used in the bat research community and permitting in some jurisdictions. Participants will learn and get hands-on experience about why each method is used and the types of marking and tracking techniques that answer specific questions. Participants will be required to have rabies vaccination in advance of the course, but capture permits will be obtained in advance. No previous bat handling experience is required.
