Join staff from Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and Humber Arboretum for a night of adventure as you take in a presentation on bats and why they are important in our communities.
Bats are fascinating creatures that navigate the world using a built in sonar system. And guess what? They live in our backyard! Enjoy an outdoor presentation and discover ways to help bats in your community. Afterwards, we'll venture along the Humber River trail as citizen scientists to listen to bats through a special bat detector.
