'Ms Adventure'
- starring Rachel Renstra
(a former stand up comic) Our main guide Bain
Walker who has been leading
the Bat Tours for 9 years was on the show with her. Bain took her
rappelling into the cave, then they suited up, went down inside to see
the bats on the ceiling wall, then she interviewed & asked him
questions while the bats were flying out. Several of the tourists
watching the filming & bat flight got autographs &
photos with 'Ms Adventure'.
Look for the
Series 'Ms Adventure' - Fridays at 8pm Central Time
Bain & the Frio Cave Bats were on the segment called "Cliques"
(as in Herds, Flocks, Colonies)
Bain did a great job & the filming was awesome!
The Animal Planet
