The White Nose Syndrome is a fungal disease that kills bats. It has been spreading further west in the last 10 years, and it's even made it's way to the Tower Soudan Underground Mine
We've talked previously on air and even in my blogs about the Tower-Soudan underground mine. Last time my family and I visited in 2013 we had to walk across a special mat that was too remove any fungus spores from our shoes.
The Tower Soudan Underground Mine is located in Northern Minnesota and offers tours of the now closed down underground mine. This morning during our "Are you smarter than Cathy" trivia game, I asked her how far down the mine shaft went. The answer was 2,341 feet, which is about 2,160 feet more than she thought. (She had no idea.)
