More than fifteen million Mexican free-tailed bats live, for part of the year, deep in the recesses of Bracken Cave, in southern Texas. The bats are so numerous that they appear on radar systems—great blobs popping up and hovering above Bracken Cave every night. In about the last two decades, the bats’ spring migration to Texas—they spend their winters scattered across Mexico—has advanced by two weeks. Tap the link in our bio to read more about how rapid climate change is affecting the bats’ behavior, and what it means for animals’ extinction rates. Illustration by Ed Steed.

cat_holler Bracken Cave is in central Texas, southern Texas is more the Brownsville area. These bats eat mosquitoes all summer long. Their bodies aren’t much bigger than a man’s thumb. An overwhelmingly sight to see them emerge from the cave en masse.
