Is Khao Chong Pran Cave Evening Bat Exodus happening right now?
As of today, in season, building toward peak (~November 1). Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
Each evening year-round a large mixed colony of cave-roosting bats leaves Khao Chong Pran in Ratchaburi to forage.
The mass exodus forms a steady, twisting column that can last 30-60 minutes and is visible from the temple hill and nearby riverside viewpoints.
