The Bat Bangladesh research project broadly focuses on bats in Bangladesh, highlighting their ecology and conservation. Specifically, we are working on bat diversity, understanding how bats respond to land-use change, dispelling misconceptions about bats, and promoting "Bats are friends, not foes," as bats play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems and economies. However, few people realize this.

This Project was led by Ashraf Ul Hasan Sazzad, a PhD Candidate from Texas Tech University, and supported by The Rufford Foundation, Bat Conservation International, the American Society of Mammalogists, the Graduate School at TTU, the Michelle C. Knapp scholarship, the Texas Tech Natural Science Research Laboratory, and The Kingston lab. 

The project "Rediscovery and Conservation of Grey Francolin (Ortygornis pondicerianus) in Bangladesh: Insights from the Upper Ganges Barren Land and Char Majardiyar Regions" is a BSc. The thesis project focused on the conservation of the Grey Francolin population in Bangladesh. The project aims to provide valuable insights into this species' conservation efforts and rediscovery in the Upper Ganges Barren Land and Char Majardiyar Regions. 

The tropical semi-deciduous Satchari National Park lies in northeast Bangladesh. Elevational gradients and the local microclimate make Bangladesh's northeast butterfly habitat more diverse and abundant. The tropical rainforests of

Bangladesh were teeming with wildlife. Nature conservation focuses on

maximizing plant, animal, and plant-animal connection diversity on a global

scale. It was essential to the natural populations of plants and animals.

Identifying and evaluating the floral and faunal diversity of an ecosystem helps

protect forests. Insects play a crucial role in the evaluation of forests for biological

resource conservation (Kim, 1993; Samways, 1994), and butterfly diversity and

their characteristic links to environmental variables such as plant diversity, floral

wildness, habitat maintenance and complexity, landscape and forest structure,

topography and moisture gradient, climate, and others are good subjects for the

ecological study of forests (Molina & Palma, 1996; Spitzer et al., 1997). Elevational gradients and microclimates contribute to the

richness and diversity of the butterfly fauna in northeastern Bangladesh. Satchari National

Park contains 195 species of butterflies from 6 families(Hasan, 2018). As before, (Hasan,

2018) conducted a study from 2015–2017 on butterfly species and seasonal change. In

this study, we demonstrated the current seasonal variation of butterfly species and the

relationship with Hasan (Hasan, 2018).
