SUMMARY:Bat Week Film Screening: The Invisible Mammal
LOCATION:Compton Union Building
DESCRIPTION:BEWARE! This film might make you fall in love with bats.\n\nJoin us for a screening of the film, "The Invisible Mammal," raising awareness about the North American bat, and how they are under threat.  White-nose Syndrome has been wiping them out.\n\nThe Invisible Mammal is a feature-length documentary film about bats, infectious disease, and women in science. The Invisible Mammal tells the captivating story of a dedicated team as they strive to protect North America's bats against a deadly disease rapidly spreading across the continent. In this intensely cinematic film, bats are rendered poetically visible: spectacularly streaming out of caves or bridges, or cradled in a gloved hand, wings extended. This film follows Project Fat Bat, a potential solution to help rebuild healthy bat populations across North America. Against the backdrop of a global pandemic their work gets interrupted, but their commitment never waivers. The race to save bats is on.\n\nAt once a nature film, a science film, and a character-driven adventure film, The Invisible Mammal will immerse you in the world of bats and forever change the way you feel about these amazing little creatures.\n\n\n\nThe film is 90 minutes long and will be followed by Q & A with:\n\n\n\n 	Kara McClanahan, MSc; local bat expert, WSU School of Biological Sciences\n\n 	Stephanie Seifert, PhD; researcher of bat-virus interactions, WSU Paul G. Allen School for Global Health\n\n 	Niki Desautels, MSc; conservatron educator, Bats Northwest\n\n\n\nThis event is hosted by the College of Veterinary Medicine and will be moderated by Dr. Stephanie Seifert.\n\nWatch the trailer at TheInvisibleMammal.com\n\nOctober 24-31 is Bat Week - an international celebration of bats and their importance. Visit BatWeek.org to learn more.\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n 	WSU Public Pay Parking Garage rates - Terrell Libray, Smith Center (CUE) and the Fine Arts parking garages are all in close proximity.\n\n 	Evening parking map (pdf file)\n\n\n\n
