Bats are often overlooked but data gathered by the Hardwood Ecosystem Experiment (HEE) 100 year, large-scale experimental study reminds us the key role they have in our forests as they eat insects and pests including mosquitoes, spiders and more.
Learn about the bat research that is happening as part of the HEE.
