Assynt Bat Cave Project
This project was designed to ascertain if Assynt’s Caves are being used by roosting bats. In addition it also aimed to help determine the initial importance for our caves for bats.
The project proposed to use specialist survey data loggers. These loggers will be positioned near a cave entrance where they can detect and store any bat activity without needing human attention.
Assynt Bat Cave Project is being run by the North Highland Bat Network with funding from Scottish Natural Heritage.
