Go for gold can often end with a heart defeat, like an intrepid bat learned last week when a cat from the Russian house hurt and let it dead when it stays only 127 kilometers d A flight around the world.
In a statement published by the BAT Conservation Trust based in the United Kingdom, the long distance leaflet – a Pipistrelus Nthusii Dubbed “Olympic Bat” by scientists – had already stolen 1,2518 km (2,018 km) in Europe since Its starting point of its starting point of the United Kingdom when its trek ended in the Russian village of Moglin.
There, an unidentified cat shot down the flyer, seriously injuring and leaving her dead on the floor. The wounded bat was discovered by a resident of Moglin who notified a conservation group of the local bat that came and saved him, but they were unable to save his life. He weighed only 8 grams and focused on the size of an inch.
The bat also had a ring on his arm with London zoo written on it. The group therefore notified the BCT. This is the bat has been labeled by a volunteer battle recorder, Brian Briggs, in the Bedfont Lakes Country Park near Heathrow, London, 2016.
“It’s very exciting,” Briggs said. “It’s a pleasure to be able to contribute to international conservation work to protect such extraordinary animals and learn more about their fascinating lives.”
The longest flight of bats ever recorded, according to Bookscience, was also by P. Nathusii, the latter, which flies from Latvia to Spain in 2019, covering a distance of 2,223 km).
There are silver medals at the Olympic Games and the Olympic bats have managed to record the second longest flight to the longest ever recorded. He broke full records, including the longest flight of the United Kingdom and the longest flight of bat during Western migration to the East.
“His trip is an exciting scientific discovery and another room in the puzzle of the migration of the bat,” said Lisa Worgedge, Head of Conservation Services at BCT, said. “The movements of the Pipistrelles of Nathusius around the United Kingdom and between the United Kingdom and the continent remain largely mysterious.”
“It’s a remarkable and longest journey we know of any Batty Batty across Europe,” added added. “Which Olympian!”
According to BCT, the National Pipistral Project of Nathusius, launched in 2014, recorded more than 2,600 P. Nathusii in the United Kingdom to help study species reproductive habits, migration behaviors and distribution. Understand how and where these bats migrate as well as when they created maternity colonies are crucial for conservation efforts.
