Bats perish and no one knows why

More proof the apocalyse is near.
From the new york times: "Wildlife biologists fear a significant die-off in about 15 caves and mines in New York, as well as at sites in Massachusetts and Vermont. Whatever is killing the bats leaves them unusually thin and, in some cases, dotted with a white fungus. Bat experts fear that what they call White Nose Syndrome may spell doom for several species that keep insect pests under control." First bees, now bats. wonder what M night thinks of this???
