Keep the Wild Alive Poster Presented To Bat House Builders - National Wildlife Federation - Brief Article

International Wildlife, March-April, 2000

In honor of threatened and endangered bats, like the Indiana bat featured in its Keep the Wild Alive endangered spe- cies campaign, NWF is urging members to hang bat boxes to provide habitat for the many species that will emerge soon from winter hibernation.

From now until April 30, or while supplies last, people who send in pictures of their bat boxes will receive a Keep the Wild Alive color poster depicting the 25 endangered species from around the world that NWF is highlighting in its campaign.
