I was watching a nature show which was profiling one of the busier bat-dwellings in the world. The narrator claimed that one could not descend into the cave without special apparatus, or one could die, and pointed to discolorations on the out-back rock where the NH3 had escaped the cave.
So, I guess one could harvest NH3 at the point of some animal dwellings. I don't know what negative consequences there might be to this, which under the precautionary principle one should consider. For all I know, for example, the bats need the NH3 in their dwelling to balance the atmosphere in some way, or the atmosphere uses NH3 in its cycle in some way that we don't presently appreciate. Not to say I think we should hold off too long on an experiment, or that these objections have likely validity, just to round out the picture with some PP (no pun) considerations.
