Thermal Imagery of Hibernating Bats (VIDEO) U.S. Geological Survey This video is under embargo. Please login to access this video. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Caption Imagery from temperature-sensing cameras showing bats in hibernation. This new footage suggests that bats who warm up from hibernation together throughout the winter may be better at surviving white nose syndrome, a disease caused by a cold-loving fungus ravaging insect-eating bat populations in the United States and Canada. Locations: Gap Cave,125 Cumberland Gap National Historical Park (CGNHP), Lee County, Virginia, USA, and Wyandotte Cave,126 O'Bannon Woods State Park, Crawford County, Indiana, USA.
