Friday, October 20, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. — Presentation by Mallory Davies on her nectarivorous bat research

Mallory Davies is a doctoral student at Colorado State University in the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology and has been studying the lesser long-nosed bats and their food source, agave flowers.

Three species of long-nosed bats migrate through the Gila region and depend on agave nectar during migration, pollinating the plants in the process. The Gila Chapter has been working with Bat Conservation International to plant more Parry’s and Palmer’s agaves. Mallory’s talk lets us learn more about this animal/plant synergy.

Meet in WNMU’s Harlan Hall, Room 111, with refreshments following the program. Those who want to join online may request a Zoom link at gilanative [at] gmail [dot] com. (Chapter members will automatically receive a Zoom link by email). All are welcome. For more information, go to https://gilanps.org/events/programs/
