(1) where did you derive the 2 mile figure? did you survey it? that's a whole lot of cave. does the 2 mile figure represent thorough exploration (AKA all leads checked, with going leads surevyed), or is there more to do?
(2) are you entirely certain that, throughout the course of 2 miles of cave, there wasn't another way for the bats to get in and/or out? seems like it would be hard to rule this out.

If I interpreted that right, you think you had a drain hole carrying intermittent water into the "new" part of the cave sometime pre 1950's with bats also using that area. Then pre 1950's a rock and wet clay obstruction plugged the hole (completely when you found it or not?) trapping the bats. Now the way is open again and being re-colonized.

From the looks of your pics, neither do your (guys) as you refered to them. No helmets, No belay, and just plain outlandish ideas about what you may or may not have found. you mentioned in another post that rocks fell (for at least ten seconds)???? that should be about a 3200 pit . Maybe you should let a more seasoned caver drop that first before you or your (guys) end up a recovery
