Marsupials don't adjust their thermal energetics for life in an alpine environment.

Marsupials don't adjust their thermal energetics for life in an alpine environment.

Marsupials have relatively low body temperatures and metabolic rates, and are therefore considered to be maladapted for life in cold habitats such as alpine environments. We compared body temperature, energetics and water loss as a function of ambient temperature for 4 Antechinus species, 2 from alp...
