BATS IN FORESTS: Conservation and
Management
Michael. Lacki, John Hayes, Allen Kurta;
forward by Merlin Tuttle. Over half of the
forty-five (45) bat species in North America depend on
forests for all or part of the year. Recently,
it has become more evident that bat conservation and
management are strongly linked to the health of
forests within their range. As a result,
management plans and silvicultural practices have been
altered to better accommodate bat species. Bats
in Forests presents the work of a variety of experts
who address many aspects of the ecology and
conservation of bats. Discusses: bat behavior as
it relates to forests; the important role bats play in
the ecology of forests; forest management and its
influence on bat habitat on both public lands and
privately owned forests, and; techniques for
monitoring bat populations and activity. A
valuable, well-referenced work for anyone interested
in bat biology, ecology, conservation, forestry, and
land management. 7 x 10, 352p, 2 color illustrations,
32 b&w photos, 12 line drawings, 2007.
