Image: By catching bats, these 'virus hunters' hope to stop
the next pandemic
Kirk
Taray, a bat ecologist, detangles a bat caught on a mist net
that was set up in front of a building with a bat roost at
the University of the Philippines Los Banos (UPLB), in Los
Banos, Laguna province, Philippines, February 19, 2021.
"With the ongoing pandemic, there is more caution taken into
consideration while studying bats. Several measures and
protocols are established to protect both the researchers
and the bats. Also, the community quarantine and travel
restrictions added difficulty especially in accessing
potential areas of study," said Taray.
