Extreme hyperthermia tolerance in the world’s most abundant wild bird
The thermal tolerances of vertebrates are generally restricted to body temperatures below 45–47 °C, and avian and mammalian critical thermal maxima seldom exceed 46 °C. We investigated thermoregulation at high air temperatures in the red-billed quelea (Quelea quelea), an African passerine bird that...
