Seasonal temperature acclimatization in a semi-fossorial mammal and the role of burrows as thermal refuges
Small mammals in habitats with strong seasonal variation in the thermal environment often exhibit physiological and behavioral adaptations for coping with thermal extremes and reducing thermoregulatory costs. Burrows are especially important for providing thermal refuge when above-ground temperature...
