Hawaiian Hoary Bat Project

WEST is conducting a multi-year study to assess the distribution and occupancy of Hawaiian hoary bats on the island of Oahu, and is nearing completion of the second of four years of planned data collection. The key objectives of the study are to 1) provide information on bat occupancy, distribution, and detection probabilities specific to the island of Oahu, 2) examine seasonal changes in distribution by estimating seasonal changes in occupancy, and 3) collect data that can be used to assess Hawaiian hoary bat habitat/use relationships on an island-wide scale. This study is being conducted with oversight from Hawaii’s Endangered Species Research Committee, and is a cooperative effort engaging multiple agencies and private entities.

Information gained from this study will inform future conservation efforts targeting Hawaii’s only endemic land mammal by identifying areas of the island that have higher year-round use by, or that may be seasonally important to, Hawaiian hoary bats. Results of the study will also provide insights into potential study designs for monitoring long-term trends in occupancy as an index of population status.
