"Information on bats is needed for management purposes. Since bats are migratory and likely hibernate in Alaska (AK), British Columbia (BC) or other jurisdictions, inter-jurisdictional management efforts are required. There is also a steady demand for information on bats by the Yukon public for education, interpretive programs, bat conservation (i.e., construction of bat houses) and the removal of unwanted bats from buildings. The primary objectives of the study were to conduct a systematic survey of the bat fauna of the Yukon to determine species composition and distribution." (from Introduction)
