The Invisible Mammal is a feature documentary about the struggle that North American bats face to survive, including disease, climate change, and habitat destruction. This film will inspire audiences to protect bats from extinction.
We are currently in fundraising mode! Thanks to our donors and supporters, we have already filmed in Texas at Bracken Cave (the largest bat colony in the world), in Michigan Upper Peninsula and in Central California. We will continue filming in all of these locations and more throughout 2020. We hope to release the film in early 2022. Please support our GoFundMe campaign!
The short film was filmed in 2014 at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area with Corky Quirk, who founded NorCal Bats. She is a bat rescuer and educator at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area. The feature film will follow a team of bat scientists conducting a study in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to help bats survive the devastating effects of white-nose syndrome.
The Invisible Mammal is directed by award-winning filmmaker, Kristin Tieche. Kristin has been passionate about bats since she attended graduate school in Syracuse, New York. When she learned that white-nose syndrome had decimated bat populations in that region, she began producing this film.
