Torpor on Demand: Heterothermy in the Non-Lemur Primate Galago moholi
BACKGROUND: Hibernation and daily torpor are energy- and water-saving adaptations employed to survive unfavourable periods mostly in temperate and arctic environments, but also in tropical and arid climates. Heterothermy has been found in a number of mammalian orders, but within the primates so far...
