Dead mice within a cave where bats are infected with white-nose syndrome (WNS) have white fuzz on their noses that appears to be similar to the white fuzz seen on the noses of bats ill with WNS. A researcher hypothesizes that mice are also susceptible to WNS when they live in close contact with infected bats. To test this hypothesis, the researcher captures 50 healthy mice and randomly separates them into two groups. One group is housed in an area that contains healthy bats. The other group of mice is housed in an enclosure that contains bats that have WNS. The mice in both groups are monitored for signs of WNS.
