Detailed description (English): On Tuesday, 22nd September at the entrance of the cave/tunnel Ponikva the NGO activists from Vareš and Sarajevo will set traffic sign "Bats in a tunnel." This cave/tunnel is the habitat of several species of bats, among others it is one of the few habitats of Barbastella barbastellus, a rare bat species in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We will ask drivers to reduce the gas to a minimum as they pass through a cave/tunnel. That will reduce pollution in the cave, reduce the possibility of collisions cars and bats and increase traffic safety. For those who want to leave the car and visit the cave, at the service will be guides volunteers who will provide information about the origin of the cave Ponikva, founded cultures and subterranean fauna. For the youngest we plan to prepare a special surprise.
Target group(s): driwers, schollars
