In the winter of 2006, cave explorers in upstate New York found a cavern full of dead and dying bats, their faces covered with a mysterious, white, powdery substance. Soon, bats in other caves began to die, too, and the plague spread across the country with terrifying speed. What is this new disease? And is there any way to stop it?
