The bat population of Woodward Cave was wiped out in the winter of 2010. Almost 3,000 died that winter from White Nose Syndrome. Since that time, the bat population has slowly recovered and now numbers almost 900.
Woodward cave is the third largest hibernating site for bats in Pennsylvania.
Woodward Cave is proud of our efforts to cooperate with the reserchers and game commission experts who have helped in this effort.
