mystery illnes attacks bats!!!

this document is about this new illness (white nose syndrome) that it is attacking bats, before, scientists saw this same illness in bees, now it is found in bats, this is caused by a mysterious aliment!
white fungus was found around many of the affected bats, the plague claimed 13,500 (90 percent) of 15,000 bats over two years, and since last January has spread from four caves west of Albany, New York, to four other sites including, now Vermont.
After research they discovered that the syndrome kills the bats while they hibernate (taking away their fat reserve months ahead of schedule)!!!
specialist Alan Hicks called the illness "the gravest threat to bats [we] have ever seen."
my opinion!
i think this is very interesting and important, and i think their should be more research and scientist should try to find some way to avoid this disease, because even though i really dont like bats, their still animals , and something really wierd is happening and its changing everything because bats are important in the food chain and this venenous aliment can go from bats to another animal, and it could keep going on, because this had already happened in bees! i think this could be a very very dangerous and scientist should find the cause and find a way to stop this!!!!!! i think this article was veri interesting and i would like to learn more abou this!!!!!
