Batwatch trips are a new concept in bat appreciation worldwide, whereby a small group of participants will spend a week or more in one area, studying and identifying bats, as part of much-needed survey work. This benefits the host country and allows regional biologists to include bat data in conservation planning.
Nicaragua has a high diversity of bats with over 100 species known, but there have been very few detailed studies of bats in the larger national parks. This is particularly the case in the largest wilderness region of Bosawas, in northern Nicaragua, and the site of Batwatch II.
If you want to really experience one of the last remaining wilderness areas in Central America while living like a local resident, and if you love bats and want to know more about them, this trip may be for you. http://www.fionareid.ca/?page_id=435
