You can learn how to monitor bats using an acoustic sensor at a Bat Monitoring Training scheduled for May 30, 2025 from 10 a.m. to noon in Committee Room 2 at the Oneida County Courthouse in Rhinelander.
Bat monitoring using acoustic sensors involves deploying ultrasonic microphones will record bat echolocation calls, which are then analyzed to identify species and understand their activity patterns, aiding in conservation efforts. This training is taught by Certified Wisconsin Bat Ambassador, Marcia Obukowicz.

- Acoustic monitoring provides a non-invasive way to study bat populations and their habitats.
- It can help determine species distribution, abundance, and activity patterns.
- This information is crucial for understanding and addressing threats to bat populations, such as habitat loss and white-nose syndrome.
- Learn more about what bats do and why and where they do it.
- Check out the acoustic sensor equipment and monitor bats on YOUR time.
