BII expert in: Bats

I am a small mammal biologist interested in the community ecology of bats, rodents and shrews. I would like to know how habitat change will affect the distribution of these species. I am also interested in bat-human interactions; why people act the way they do towards bats and how their actions affect the survival of bats biodiversity. I run MAKENYA project (https://www.spotteron.com/makenya/), a citizen science project in Kenya for monitoring the distribution of mammal species in Kenya.

Join our network

The development of the BII depends on the input of experts across the continent to adequately represent African biodiversity. The index will be presented in a usable form for decision making. Join our network to get involved or to stay updated as the project progresses.
