...Yuuki Y. Watanabe; Jeremy A. Goldbogen ABSTRACT Wild animals are under selective pressure to optimise energy budgets; therefore, quantifying energy expenditure, intake and allocation to specific activities is important if we are to understand how animals survive in their environment. One approach...

... on the energy budgets, resting metabolic rate and milk energy output (MEO) were measured in lactating Swiss mice at 21 and 32.5°C. Females kept at 32.5°C had a significantly lower resting metabolic rate, food intake and MEO, and lighter offspring, than those kept at 21°C. However, exposure to wind increased...

Filtering and conversion of raw transmitter pulse frequency data to T sk was done using methods outlined by Jonasson (2017) . The raw transmitter signals...
