By radiotracking bats to their roosts, we can gather a wide variety of information about the habitats bats need in order to survive. For example, types of trees, proximity to humans, and amount of habitat required. This is crucial information when trying to protect a natural area or specific colony or species. OBC also tests many different kinds of bat houses to determine occupancy rates and species that use them. Some bat house designs have had tremendous success due to the increased efforts of bat researchers nation-wide.
