The large hole is essentially the front door for bats who will be making a new artificial cave in Woodlawn, Tenn. on Sept. 11, 2012. their new home this winter. The cave was built to house bats that were potentially exposed to White Nose Syndrome, which has been found in the nearby Bellamy Cave. The cave can be disinfected while bats are not occupying it, but real caves cannot because of the number of other creatures living there. (AP Photo/The Leaf-Chronicle, Allison Smith) NO SALES
