I would like to learn more about their work and perhaps volunteer for the next expedition. I am a mountain guide, caver, and cave diver. I've climbed in Nepal and would love to return to the high mountains to do some exploration work. Thank you, Bill Hello,

It's dedicated to Fabio Scabar, speleologist from Trieste recently passed away. For obvious reasons exploration will be resumed during the up-comming summer season. Cheers. Hi,

This cave together with an old train tunnel are the biggest winter colonies in Spain. We are now writting the chapter about bats for a book about this cave (Hundidero-Gato, in Málaga) Does anyone know the biggest wintering colony in Europe and Northern Africa? We need some further info about those 84.000 bats in order to quote it. Juan We are monitoring a winter colony of Miniopterus in southern
