This book chapter on the conservation and management of bats inhabiting North American forests. It synthesizes existing research on bat ecology, focusing on roosting behavior, foraging strategies, and the impacts of forest management practices. The text highlights the need for further research to address knowledge gaps and improve conservation efforts. Specific topics covered include roost selection (considering temperature and tree characteristics), foraging habitat use, and the effects of various silvicultural methods on bat populations. The authors emphasize the importance of using multiple research methods and incorporating an organism-centric perspective in landscape-level studies.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Bats-Forests-Conservation-Michael-Lacki/dp/0801884993?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=7999290cf0a3f5416bfbfac30ea878b6&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
