The influence of the starvation–predation trade‐off on the relationship between ambient temperature and body size among endotherms
AIM: The tendency for animals at higher latitudes to be larger (Bergmann's rule) is generally explained by recourse to latitudinal effects on ambient temperature and the food supply, but these receive only mixed support and do not explain observations of the inverse to Bergmann's rule. Our...
