Going to Bat for Bats

Bats may drive you batty; they are pretty creepy to some people but they're also essential to farms and backyard gardens as they eat their body weight in bugs in a single night. And they're in trouble. A fungus that causes White Nose Syndrome is killing them off. Why you should care about saving the bats, and what's being done to accomplish it, Monday at 9:00 on The Sound of Ideas.
