White-nose syndrome (WNS) is a devastating disease that affects hibernating bats, primarily in North America. It is caused by the fungal pathogen *Pseudogymnoascus destructans*. The disease is characterized by a white, powdery fungal growth on the noses and wings of infected bats, which is how it gets its name.
