Cave Myotis (Myotis velifer), Comal County, Texas, USA. I run the Department of Conservation &amp; Research for the San Antonio Zoo.  We work with subterranean species from around the world.  Among the species we encounter on our bioinventory trips to caves across the United States are bats.  I&#039;ve been playing around with the Phototrap system and this is one of the images we landed in Comal County, Texas, USA.<br />
This is the Cave Myotis (Myotis velifer).  The species can contract white nose syndrome but we don&#039;t yet know how the fungal infection is impacting this species, particularly in the southern portion of its range.
