The ecology of sleep in non‐avian reptiles
Sleep is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom and yet displays considerable variation in its
extent and form in the wild. Ecological factors, such as predation, competition, and …

Urban lizards use sleep sites that mirror the structural, thermal, and light properties of natural sites
Global change processes such as urbanization are likely to affect sleep behavior, by altering
abiotic (eg, thermal and illumination) and biotic conditions (eg, predation pressure) that …
