White Nose Syndrome

On a personal note - looking at the above map on the spread of WNS, why is it that the states and provinces around Michigan have recorded incidences of WNS and Michigan does not? Many of the hibernacula (bat homes) are located in abandoned mine shafts in the Upper Peninsula. Lets hope that the geographic isolation of the U.P. mines will protect our bats from this devastating disease.
