摘要
Capture myopathy, a stress-induced disease resulting in metabolic acidosis, has not been recorded in bats. We observed two cases of apparent capture myopathy in Hoary Bats (Lasiurus cinereus) captured in mist-nets. We caution those intending to work with this species of a potential occurrence, and discuss capture protocols that may reduce the risk of capture myopathy.
