Challenges of measuring body temperatures of free-ranging birds and mammals
DJ McCafferty, S Gallon, A Nord - Animal Biotelemetry, 2015 - Springer
The thermal physiology of most birds and mammals is characterised by considerable spatial
and temporal variation in body temperature. Body temperature is, therefore, a key parameter …
