Project description
The project will
be built on the results of the previous project. Two main parts of the
project are identified:
1. conservation of roost and foraging sites
2. education of the public
Within the conservation of roost sites, we will realize measures for the
bat conservation in bunkers (army shelters), old dog pens (colonized by
the bat colony) and tourist shelters. Also, wetlands will be
revitalised and trees with cavities suitable for bats will be marked and
protected.
Our activities
will involve local people in conservation actions similar to the
previous project. We will realize presentations for children and the
course about bat identification in the field. In this project, we will
be more focused on the conservation of roost sites and foraging sites
and education about them in selected areas - Bratislava City Forests and
Buda Mountains.
We plan involving people more for our activities.
Implementation period: June 2020 - April 2021
