The White-Nose Syndrome is named for the striking fungal growth on the muzzles, the ears, the wings, and the tails of bats. Much remains unknown about this disease, which was first documented west of Albany, New York, in February of 2006. Over the last five years, White-Nose Syndrome has spread to at least 16 states, and also to Canada. The mortalities caused by the White-Nose Syndrome are astonishing, reaching up to 99 percent in some caves and mines. Over one million little brown bats have been killed, likely contributing to a 78 percent decline in the calls of these bats in the night sky over the Hudson River. White-Nose Syndrome in bats has profound public health, environmental, and economic impacts.

This book focuses on central themes related to the conservation of bats. It details their response to land-use change and management practices, intensified urbanization and roost disturbance and loss. Increasing interactions between humans and bats as a result of hunting, disease relationships, occupation of human dwellings, and conflict over fruit crops are explored in depth. Finally, contributors highlight the roles that taxonomy, conservation networks and conservation psychology have to play in conserving this imperilled but vital taxon. With over 1300 species, bats are the second largest order of mammals, yet as the Anthropocene dawns, bat populations around the world are in decline. Greater understanding of the anthropogenic drivers of this decline and exploration of possible mitigation measures are urgently needed if we are to retain global bat diversity in the coming decades. This book brings together teams of international experts to provide a global review of current understanding and recommend directions for future research and mitigation.

Bats have a poor image for the public at large because they are often feared. This is usually due to ignorance. In this book, we have eight chapters on bats covering countries such as Algeria, Bulgaria, France, Pakistan, Poland, the UK and the USA and subjects ranging from acoustic monitoring of bat species for distribution and conservation purposes to various bat-borne and bat-carried diseases. These diseases cannot be taken lightly but should not be a reason for panic or to fear or even kill bats. Bats will not cause any harm if we let them live in peace. With the added knowledge through this book, we should know how best to cope with bats, which need all our support in the changing environments and climates.

From 6 years old Come and discover the wonderful life of bats ! Learn about their environment, their physical features, what they eat and much more! The “How they live” collection is a must-have for children and other members of the family who are eager to learn about nature and animals while having fun. EXTRACT Bats are the only mammals capable of sustained flight. Their front legs are modified into skin flaps which they use to fly – as well as birds can with their wings. The bats that live in Europe feed on insects, which they catch in flight. Due to their nocturnal activity, they help to regulate the number of night insects, which might otherwise multiply beyond control. Bats find their way using echo-location. They emit high-pitched calls that the human ear cannot detect, and the echo helps them to locate their insect prey. They also have good eyesight. ABOUT THE COLLECTION The collection "How they live..." is about wild creatures and their relation to our lives and the environment. In the "How they live..." series : • How they live... amphibians • How they live... birds • How they live... owls • How they live... reptiles • How they live... rodents ABOUT THE AUTHORS Ivan Esenko presents the world of nature and invites the reader to learn more about the world that we are part of. His camera is his most faithful companion and its lens particularly likes to ‘capture’ those animals that live in close quarters to man. We take them so much for granted that we no longer seem to care for them. Ivan is their voice, he has become their ‘personal’ photographer. David Withrington from Britain has spent most of his professional life working for the official agency, Natural England, where he was initially Author/Editor and latterly Senior Freshwater Adviser. He has a particular interest in birds and butterflies. He has many contacts across Europe through his voluntary work for youth and environmental conservation, including friends in Slovenia, a country which he has visited 34 times. ABOUT THE PUBLISHER Okaši is a Slovenian publisher with a vibrant programme. At every turn, nature reveals its new face and discloses a myriad of secrets. This is why we have devoted a special place to it in our publishing house. We are the creators of books that delight curious children and their parents in their discoveries of nature: in the home garden and the nearby park, but also further afield, in the fields and forests. At Okaši we keep pace with the times which is why have embarked upon several electronic editions of our books. We have added sound to these publications and hence a new dimension to the contents already there.
