Washington Bat Conservation Group

We are a group that promotes bat education and helps conduct research on Washington bats for conservation purposes.

@HonkIfUrHoary Where were they found? I am also inclined to say big brown bat based on size and blunt tragus.

@HonkIfUrHoary 🤣 Sorry, it's the freezing and thawing that screws up our roads. We jokingly say that we have two seasons in Montana, winter and road construction. Funny tgat they gave you miles instead of time. I grew up telling people how long it takes to get there rather than how far.

@joshuagates Portlanders when they see snow 🤣❄

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@batsborealis I agree with some but not all. As with other generations generalizations work for some but not the whole.

@TheBlackNerd He gets upset and starts yelling at me that they travelled all this way ( from the midwest to Montana) just to see this dinosaur. I looked at him and said "did you check our website before you came? Because it clearly states what exhibits we have and where that exhibit is."

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@TheBlackNerd I was working at a museum in the late 1990s when a family came in and paid admission. I explained the path and exhibits. The dad blurts out where is the t-rex skeleton (one of our traveling exhibits)? I told him that it was in another museum as it is a traveling exhibit.

@briankeating Yeah, it's more than 5, could say "past humans eat Artiodactyls."

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@briankeating Intensification of Artiodactyls by pre-contact humans?

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@NorCalBats This is not good news. I hope that we can find a way to stop the spread of WNS and help these bats recover 😔.

@BatConIntl Such a beautiful bat!!! 😍😍😍❤🦇

@joshuagates @Discovery @discoveryplus Hey Josh, want to switch jobs? I'm an archaeologist too, but spend most of my time pushing paperwork. You can do Section 106 compliance, and I can travel and see amazing discoveries. Sound like a deal? 😁

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@HonkIfUrHoary My answer would be infinity/10.

@JusttheZooofUs Australian ghost bat

@HonkIfUrHoary It was an amazing and wonderful thing that you did, adopting a senior dog ❤. And I bet those were the best three years of her life. 💞🐩

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@HonkIfUrHoary @TheAngryOlogist I agree. And it is actually a good thing that it is so hard because then we know that it was the right choice and the best choice. I am also going to need to make this choice soon. My puppers is 15 and her arthritis is so bad that I have her on an anti inflammatory and an opiate.

@HonkIfUrHoary Are you taking Kate's online training? Those are great! I have taken all of them. Hoping to get her here for an in person training soon!

[Washington Bat Conservation Group @washington_bat]

@BatConIntl How could anyone in their right mind think bats are gross?!! They are one of the cleanest animals I know of. They groom more than my cats do! Plus they are so adorable 😍
