If you want to start off your day with a heartwarming story, read about the rescue of a nest of Ozark Big-Eared Bats, Plecotus townsendii ingens.

Nice story.
There are seasonal closures of caves out here to protect the main-stem species, Townsend's big-eared bat. Lava Beds National Monument, one of the less-known jewels of the US National Park system, has a sizable population of Townsend's that breeds in the lava tubes there.
