The deadly white nose syndrome has been decimating bat populations. A recent article in Nature identifies the cause of the epidemic as a fungus discovered in 2007. You can listen to a conversation about the science behind the syndrome this weekend on Living on Earth. But not just scientists are talking about this issue, some students at Tufts University, are rapping about it. These students pack a surprising amount of science into verse. But I'll let them, "kick the facts to ya" about "a fungus attacking bats in hibernacula."
