Pallid Bat: Final Report

Type: report

Article abstract: The Living Coast Discovery Center, in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Cabrillo National Monument, and the San Diego Natural History Museum conducted surveys to determine bat species composition on and around the Sweetwater Marsh Unit of the San Diego Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Strong historical research suggested that the pallid bat was likely utilizing Sweetwater Marsh for foraging and roosting at this time. The primary goals of this project were to establish permanent survey locations within Sweetwater Marsh, to contribute to the data collection in regional bat studies, and to establish a site-specific bat habitat threat reduction and management plan based on the survey results.
