The eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis), a migratory species recently designated endangered in Canada, is particularly threatened by the rapid development of wind energy. Protection of this species is contingent on information about where it roosts, forages, and migrates within its range, which is currently lacking. Here, I investigated changes in the bat’s migration phenology over the past century and modelled its contemporary and future distribution based on a range of climatic, anthropogenic and biotic variables. I found that bats appear to migrate earlier in spring and later in autumn, that temperature and forest type are key to predicting their distribution, and that their seasonal range is projected to shift northward, but also contract, under climate change. These results highlight the importance of including spatial and temporal considerations in conservation planning.},
