This BLM grant is for the purpose of protecting rare bat colonies inhabiting abandoned mines on Bureau of Land Management lands across southern California. This initiative involves scientist staff from the Maturango Museum in Ridgecrest, CA, who will conduct essential surveys and monitoring activities. A key component of the project is developing bat-gate design recommendations to ensure the continued survival of these sensitive populations as mines are scheduled for closure. The grant aims to conserve these vital habitats across nine field offices, safeguarding biodiversity and critical ecosystems.
