Silver-haired bats produce identifiable songs consisting of repeated ultrasonic signals. These patterned sounds appear to be unique to this species and can be used to differentiate it from other bats. In a study in the December issue of the Wildlife Society Bulletin, researchers found that the songs may be part of mating behavior.
Other articles look at waterfowl hunting participation, prairie-chicken translocations, shading marine turtle nests and more.
