The South Dakota Bat Working Group
The purpose of the SDBWG is to work to protect bats and bat habitat through
action, education, and cooperation with Federal, State, Tribal, and private
landowners. Our objectives are two-fold: to raise awareness about the role
bats play in maintaining healthy ecosystems; and to work with public land
managers and private landowners and provide alternatives that will reduce
possible adverse affects to bats or bat habitat.
