Abundance Notes
Townsend's big-eared bats require specialized roosting structures for breeding and hibernation (i.e. caves that meet specific requirements). Such caves only occur in a few localities in YNP and those caves support a small population of bats (Keinath 2005a).; Data Source: Doug Keinath-Lead Zoologist-Wyoming Natural Diversity Database
