Hi Jeanette, Thank you for asking this important question. We have a small number of bats in our cave and because bats are fairly shy creatures our guests rarely see them. We are actively a part of the National Cave Association and support bat preservation efforts. This includes not compromising their immune systems or interfering with their habitats which can happen when there is contact with guests. If you were to see a bat during a visit at our Caverns, which would be a rare sighting, we would not allow touching the bat but we would encourage you to enjoy the special moment. Our leadership team also has attended bat education classes that have included getting to study rehabilitated or injured bats up close and contrary to popular belief, they can be very friendly animals. We're happy that your question brought up a great discussion regarding this often misunderstood species, thank you for asking! :)
I wouldn't recommend it
There is a 99% chance that there won't be bats in the cave.
No
Didn't see any last week.
