Biologically, Nickajack Cave is one of the most important caves in the Tennessee Valley, serving as a maternity roost for the gray bat. Pregnant females arrive in spring to give birth to a single pup. Pockets in the cave ceiling trap warm air, which provides just the right temperature for developing baby bats. Bats can be seen from a viewing platform each evening at Nickajack Cave between late April and early September. In the fall, they migrate to cooler caves to hibernate. Nickajack Cave is too warm to provide roosting habitat for gray bats during winter months.
