Reply to comment by chewie8291 in Wind power is built at an increasing pace but its effect on nature and animals is poorly known. Researchers investigated the impact of wind turbines on bat presence and activity in Finnish boreal forests. The results indicate that wind power repels bats and drives them away from important habitats. by universityofturku

Is this zero-sum though? Are we forced to choose between renewables or bats?

I don't think that's the case. There are other sources of renewable, and ways to mitigate the negative externalities of windmills.
