Bats are the only mammals that fly. Their wings are thin membranes of skin stretched from fore to hind legs, and from hind legs to tail, with long, slender finger bones acting as wing struts. Nine species of bats regularly occur in Pennsylvania. Six bats (little brown, northern long-eared, Indiana, small-footed, tri-colored, and big brown) hibernate in caves, mines and tunnels. Three bats (silver-haired, red, and hoary) primarily migrate south for the winter.

Learn more her about the bats of Pennsylvania from our friends at the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
