Welcome to NightWings Foundation
With a specific focus on bats, NightWings Foundation was originally established as a private charitable trust to support on-ground revegetation projects that enhance their natural roosting and foraging habitat. Our support now extends to encompass a variety of other initiatives that seek a conservation outcome for Australia’s incredible megabats and microbats.
Our Mission
Bat and habitat
conservation
Our primary objective is the conservation of bats and their habitat by supporting those who share our concerns for their future.
Our Vision
To transform negative perceptions of bats into an appreciation of their ecological importance.
To increase awareness and understanding of the existing and emerging survival challenges that bats face.
To encourage development of long-term humane strategies to co-exist with bats.
Bats are protected native wildlife in Australia. It is an offence to kill or injure them, or to interfere with their roosts.
