What is on it
A bat hangs upside down from the cave ceiling, its feet gripping two stalactites and its wings folded down around it. The face is at the bottom of the design, wearing round sunglasses, and each lens holds a cave scene of stalactites and stalagmites in orange, gold, and cream. A ribbon across one wing reads Jewel Cave National Monument in hand-drawn lettering. The print is browns, black, cream, and gold. The back is plain.

It holds one of the largest known hibernating colonies of Townsend’s big-eared bats in the world. The 2018 mid-winter count found more than 1,400 bats hibernating in the cave, and the 2023-2024 count found 602, a drop the park attributes to white-nose syndrome.
What is Wild Tribute 4 the Parks? A park apparel brand that donates 4% of proceeds to national parks and public lands. The green tag at the hem and the label inside the neck both carry it.
What is Jewel Cave? The third-longest cave in the world, with more than 220 miles surveyed, in the Black Hills of South Dakota on US-16 between Custer and Newcastle, Wyoming. It is named for the calcite crystals lining its walls.
