Behavioral hypothermia of a domesticated lizard under treatment of the hypometabolic agent 3-iodothyronamine

Ectothermic animals rely on behavioral thermoregulation due to low capacity of heat production and storage. Previously, lizards were shown to achieve ‘fever’ during microbial infection by increasing their preferred body temperature (PBT) behaviorally, thereby attaining a relatively high survival rat...
