The Department of conversation is trying to shine a light on native bats behaviour in Waikato
21 February 2021
DOC has teamed up with Waikato University for two month trial which will test how native bats react to different types of artificial lights.
The trial is taking place in Waikatos Pureora Forest and will include comparisions between warm and cool coloured lights.
It's believed the lights will have a range of effects on the bats behaviour.
The research will conclude in March before a period of data analysis.
