Introducing Alabama After Dark, an October series exploring the wildlife that moves through our state after sunset and around twilight. We’re starting with bats!

Alabama is home to 16 bat species. These often-misunderstood mammals help control insects, and some bats also disperse seeds. They aren’t blind, either: Bats can see and use echolocation to navigate and find insect prey.

Throughout the series, we’ll meet more of Alabama’s fascinating wildlife, from owls and opossums to spotted salamanders and bobcats.

Want to learn more about bats? Find resources on our website through the Links section of our page.
