Bats as Beings

Tuesday, January 16, 2024 @ 7:00 pm 8:30 pm

Nature London and London Public Library proudly present six Tuesday nights of “Nature in the City”.

New discoveries about bats suggest we need to think more deeply about these mammals. Brock Fenton, professor Emeritus at Western University’s Biology Department, will discuss bats’ long (for their size) life spans — over 30 years in the wild — to the distances they travel, as well as their resistance to many viral infections.

There is no charge for this event. Seating is limited. People are seated on a first come, first served basis. We suggest early arrival for good seating. Families are welcome!

The mission of Nature in the City is to contribute to the preservation and enjoyment of nature. Let’s do this together by sharing information and stimulating an interest in the natural world around us.
