Kathryn Womak brings bats to Early Childhood Center

Kathryn Womack, student of Missouri Fisheries and Wildlife at the University of Missouri visited the children at the Early Childhood Center last week and brought two unusual friends with her – Roger and Baby, both of whom are bats. She also brought a bat detector equipped with a microphone which picks up the high pitch noise from the bats and records it. She warned the children to never touch a bat if they see one because they do carry diseases. She however has had shots and is very careful handling the bats.
