Fun Facts;
Long-tailed bats are widely distributed throughout mainland New Zealand, Stewart Island, Little Barrier and Great Barrier islands and Kapiti Island. They are more commonly seen than short-tailed bats as they fly at dusk along forest edges and because some populations have persisted in urban and rural landscapes.
Long-tailed bats from the North Island and South Island were confirmed in 2018 as one species. It has the highest threat ranking of Nationally Critical.
Long-tailed bats are capable of long distance flight – up to 50km in a single night, as they move between feeding and roosting sites.
