Bats and Trees Society of Cairns
Bats and Trees Society of Cairns Inc. is a volunteer-run not-for-profit incorporated group (NGO) dedicated to the care and protection of flying mammals in the Cairns region.
We engage the community and educate people in FNQ about the vital roles bats play in maintaining the health of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area.
Our aim is to enable people to live peacefully with bats.
We run community education engagement events including presentations to schools and community groups, an annual Bat Festival, bat chats, and community stalls. We raise funds to support bat carers and are a founding member of the Spectacled Flying-fox Recovery Team.
