Continuous growth through winter correlates with increased resting metabolic rate but does not affect daily energy budgets due to torpor use
Small mammals that are specialists in homeothermic thermoregulation reduce their self-maintenance costs of normothermy to survive the winter. By contrast, heterothermic ones that are considered generalists in thermoregulation can lower energy expenditure by entering torpor. It is well known that dif...
