Factors affecting the emergence times of seven sympatric insectivorous bat species
type: CreativeWork
description: The onset of activity in animals restricted to being active for only part of the day, is one of the most fundamental aspects of their biology. Onset of activity is likely subject to several factors including presence/absence of predators and the vagaries of environmental conditions at the time of emergence. The aim of my study was to test several hypotheses accounting for differing emergence times amongst sympatric insectivorous bat species.
