Male bats respond to adverse conditions with larger colonies and increased torpor use during sperm production ...
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Changes in environmental conditions can have strong energetic effects on animals through limited food availability or increased thermoregulatory costs. Especially difficult are periods of increased energy expenditures, such as reproduction. Reproduc...
