There’s nothing like unwinding at the end of the day, planting yourself on the couch, and basking in the fresh scent of your favorite candle (or candles).

When the North American Bat Conservation Alliance (NABCA) released its first ever State of Bats report this spring, it was intended as a baseline record of how bat species in North America were faring. NABCA is a trilateral network, with biologists and resource managers across Canada, the US and Mexico.
