Bats are in trouble around the world. That’s what drives me every day as a conservationist: the hope of preventing bat extinctions and growing thriving populations.

It’s all a hugely collaborative endeavor, with amazing partners like Zinacantán Mezcal!

Protecting bats requires a global conservation approach. 🌍
A healthy planet can support the over 1,460 bat species that inhabit it. And by conserving bats, we ensure they continue to provide the valuable ecosystem services that make Earth home for other wildlife.
