Roost disturbance, timber harvesting in state forest lands and changing fire regimes are all potential threats to the Little Pied bat. The little pied bat is listed as Near Threatened due to its significant decline, probably due to substantial habitat conversion and range contraction. However, the rates of decline are less than 30% over 3 generations, so they do not qualify for Vulnerable. Little pied bat The little pied bat ("Chalinolobus
