Abstract
Bat conservation and zoonotic disease risk: a research agenda to prevent misguided persecution in the aftermath of COVID-19 COVID-19 has spread around the globe, with massive impacts on global human health, national economies and conservation activities. Conservation psychology will play a key role in changing behaviours associated with spill-over risks and in building support for bat conservation following COVID-19 (MacFarlane & Rocha, 2020). In spite of widespread recognition that bat-associated zoonotic spill-over events are largely rooted in human activities (Brierley I et al i ., 2016), bats are often presented as the culprits of viral spill-over, with real-world repercussions for conservation efforts (López-Baucells, Rocha & Fernández-Llamazares, 2018).
