I believe a few of you have been hearing about bats on the East coast and "White-nose Syndrome". This is a very disheartening disease, and it is spreading fast. Researchers are doing what they can to understand it, but they are entirely underfunded. Since it is a fungus, the hope is that it won't reach the Colorado/Utah area since it is too dry here for fungus to grow. We can only hope.
Here is the NPR article and you can also find a link to the radio segment on the page.
