Article Synopsis
- In 2022, researchers observed gray bats with notable fur loss (alopecia), indicating potential health issues related to reproductive stages and other stress factors.
- In 2023, an experiment was conducted to assess alopecia's prevalence, severity, and associated ectoparasites in gray bats, with findings revealing no mites causing fur loss and different prevalence rates between genders.
- The study showed that lactating female bats tend to experience more severe alopecia compared to males, and no significant body condition difference was found between bats with and without fur loss, suggesting the need for further research on stress and nutritional support for these bats.
