On Creature Comforts, Kevin Farrell is joined by Dr. Troy Majure, veterinarian at the Animal Medical Center in Jackson and Libby Hartfield retired director of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science.

With Halloween approaching us in the coming days, our featured creature for today can be seen in decorations in everyone’s homes and yards across the state. That creature, of course, being a bat. Today we welcome back Katelin Cross, a conservation biologist from the Museum of Natural Science to talk about the role of the bat in our ecosystem, answer any questions you might have about these winged mammals, and share even more details about these not-so-frightful creatures.
