Buckle up! Short Wave is going on a road trip every Friday this summer. In this first episode of our series on the research happening in the National Park system, we head to
Shenandoah National Park and the
Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge. Some bats there are faring better than others against white-nose syndrome, a fungus that has killed more than 7 million bats in the last decade. Today — what researchers like
Jesse De La Cruz think is enabling some bat species to survive.
As we road trip, we want to hear where in the world you are too — especially if you're at a national park! To be featured in an episode, send us a recording saying your name, location and "You're listening to
Short Wave — from NPR." Our email is
shortwave@npr.org. We'd love to hear from you!
