Geocache Description:


GOING BATTY #62

 

Welcome to my new Bat caches.  When I lived in Missouri during the summer of 2003, I worked at Ozark Caverns within Lake of The Ozarks State Park. Ozark Caverns has remained mostly natural as there is no lighting installed in the caves, which makes it a great habitat for bats.  I learned quite a bit about bats and wanted to create a few bat puzzle caches: the "Bump In The Night" for Snag The Tag is the perfect time to do it too.  

 

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

 

Bat Fact #62

 

Bats fly with a swimming motion through the air. Think of an Olympic swimmer, like Michael Phelps, doing the butterfly stroke. Like swimming, flying is energy demanding. When in flight, a bat’s heartbeat can reach 900-1000 beats a minute (compared to 400 beats a minute when resting and 20 beats a minute when in torpor).

 

Bat wings come in varied sizes and shapes, which affect how the bat can fly. Some wings are sleek and narrow, called high-aspect ratio wings, just like on a jet. Like a jet, bats with these wings are fast fliers.
