The last 'hibernation book'was published in 1982, nearly 40 years ago, so clearly an update
was needed. The options were a book written by a single author or an edited book written by …

Technological advances in the last 20 years have enabled researchers to develop
increasingly sophisticated miniature devices (tags) that record an animal's behaviour not …

Tricolored bats (Perimyotis subflavus) that roost in subterranean hibernacula have
experienced precipitous declines from white-nose syndrome (WNS); however, understudied …

We aim to summarise what is known about torpor use and patterns in Australian and New
Zealand (ANZ) bats from temperate, tropical/subtropical and arid/semiarid regions and to …

For small endotherms inhabiting desert ecosystems, defending body temperatures (T b) is
challenging as they contend with extremely high ambient temperatures (T a) and limited …

Although 12 soft tick species (Argasidae) are native to Australia, the ecology of most is
poorly known. Argas dewae parasitizes several insectivorous bat species and has been …

Many hibernating bats in thermally stable, subterranean roosts have experienced
precipitous declines from white-nose syndrome (WNS). However, some WNS-affected …

Many hibernating animals thermoregulate during torpor and defend their body temperature
(T b) near 0° C by an increase in metabolic rate. Above a critical temperature (T crit), animals …

Temperature regulation is an indispensable physiological activity critical for animal survival.
However, relatively little is known about the origin of thermoregulatory regimes in a …

We examine the impact of behavior on the short-term energy expenditures of the only
terrestrial mammals endemic to New Zealand, two bats, the long-tailed (Chalinolobus …
