Protecting Bats for a Sustainable Future

Bat Conservation International (BCI) is a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to the conservation of bats and their habitats around the world. Founded in 1982, BCI has been at the forefront of bat conservation efforts, advocating for the protection of these essential creatures that play a crucial role in our ecosystems. Bats are not only fascinating animals but also vital pollinators and pest controllers, making their conservation imperative for maintaining biodiversity and agricultural health.

Our Mission and Impact

With a mission to conserve bats and their habitats, BCI operates globally, focusing on regions where bat populations are threatened by habitat loss, disease, and human activity. The organization works tirelessly to educate the public about the importance of bats, conduct research to inform conservation strategies, and implement on-the-ground projects that protect bat species and their environments.

Why Bats Matter

Bats are often misunderstood and unfairly maligned, yet they provide invaluable services to our planet. They are natural pest controllers, consuming vast quantities of insects, which helps reduce the need for chemical pesticides. Additionally, many bat species are crucial for pollinating plants and dispersing seeds, contributing to healthy ecosystems and food production.

Impactful Achievements

Over the years, BCI has achieved significant milestones in bat conservation:

  • Habitat Protection: BCI has helped protect over 1.5 million acres of critical bat habitat across North America and beyond.
  • Research and Education: The organization has funded numerous research projects that have advanced our understanding of bat ecology and behavior, while also providing educational resources to communities.
  • Advocacy: BCI has played a key role in influencing policies that protect bats and their habitats at local, national, and international levels.
