Presented by Burke Curator of Mammals, Dr. Sharlene Santana

How did bats become the only flying mammals? How do scientists use museum collections to understand their extraordinary diversification?

Join us for a special virtual event to hear from Burke Museum Curator of Mammals, Dr. Sharlene Santana, as we find answers to these questions and learn more about these important mammals, their diverse feeding habits, as well as their ecological importance around the world.
