The primary goals of the WMA are to implement sound resource management practices and research investigations to insure the long-term stability of the bat colony, while providing for maximum public outreach opportunities.
Many visitors watch the bats emerge from the roost-site every night.
Visitors leave the area with a better understanding of the life history and ecology of local bats, as well as the entire ecosystem. Old Tunnel Wildlife Management Area is located in Kendall County, approximately 13 miles north of Comfort, Texas and 11 miles south of Fredericksburg, Texas.
