Wind farms endangering bats study near Bear Mountain
A three month study at the Bear Mountain Wind Farm near Dawson Creek tracks bat activity to assess population numbers and migratory routes. AltaGas monitors bat movements to determine turbine adjustments that may reduce bat fatalities, as researchers note the higher bat deaths at wind sites and explore how turbines and air pressure changes affect bat mortality.
