White-Nose Syndrome Found in Local Bats / Round Top Mountain Area & Eagle Rock Park Lands
... details ±
White-Nose Syndrome has been found on bats in Hickory Nut Gorge. This deadly disease has decimated populations of bats across the eastern United States. In an effort to prevent the spread of the disease, visitors to the park, who may carry the disease on their shoes and equipment, are asked to stay out of the caves. The caves on Rumbling Bald Mountain in particular are closed to the public until further notice. ______________________________________________________________________________
