This bat species is migratory, travelling south to warm winter habitats where it can hibernate in large colonies. As a frequent flier, the hoary bat is heavily impacted by collisions with wind turbines. To reduce this threat, @batconservationinternational is working closely with the wind industry and government partners to develop and implement ways to change how wind turbines are managed, as well as developing acoustic deterrents to discourage bats from venturing near the spinning blades.
