Modelling the emergence of rodent filial huddling from physiological huddling
Huddling behaviour in neonatal rodents reduces the metabolic costs of physiological thermoregulation. However, animals continue to huddle into adulthood, at ambient temperatures where they are able to sustain a basal metabolism in isolation from the huddle. This ‘filial huddling’ in older animals is...
