Increased urinary creatinine during hibernation and day roosting in the Eastern bent-winged bat (Miniopterus fuliginosus) in Korea

Communications Biology
Torpor and arousal cycles, both daily and seasonal (e.g. hibernation), are crucial for small mammals, including bats, to maintain the energy and water balance.

Energy Homeostasis in Monotremes

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
In 1803, the French anatomist Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire decided that the newly described echidna and platypus should be placed in a separate order, the monotremes, intermediate between reptiles and mammals.

Heterothermy use in winter is associated with reduced litter size during following breeding season

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Heterothermy is considered to be the most effective energy-saving strategy improving survival under natural conditions. Interspecific studies suggest that this strategy is also associated with reduced reproductive output.

Buildings provide vital habitat for little brown myotis (Myotis lucifugus) in a high‐elevation landscape

Ecosphere, 2019
Bats in North America are currently experiencing dramatic population declines due to the disease white‐nose syndrome. The long‐term viability of vulnerable species requires recognition of critical habitats, including those also occupied by humans.

Ambivalentsus baltisaksa naiste mälestustekstides. Ambivalence in Baltic German Women’s Autobiographical Writing

Methis: Studia Humaniora Estonica, 2010
In this article I examine the autobiographical texts of two Baltic German women, Natalie von Maydell (1878-1970) and Agnes von Baranow (1877-1968) and analyse their depiction of two breakthrough events in Estonian history: the establishment of the ...

Roost characteristics and fidelity of silver‐haired bat maternity colonies in a floodplain cottonwood forest

Conservation Science and Practice
The maternal roosting behavior of migratory, tree‐dwelling bat species remains poorly understood. From 2016 to 2020 we radio‐tagged 53 adult female silver‐haired bats (Lasionycteris noctivagans) and tracked them to their day roosts to evaluate roosting ...

Daily Torpor in the Edible Oormouse Glis Glis

, 2021
Bialowieza Primeval Ormanı'nda (kuzey-doğu Polonya) bulunan kutuyuvaların periyodik kontrölleri sırasında uyuşuk durumda rastlanan beş yediuyurla ilgili gözlemler rapor edildi. Gözlemler Haziran 1994 ile Haziran ve Temmuz 1997' de yapıldı. 1 997' de uyuşuk durumda bulunan dört Yediuyurdaki rektal sıcaklıklar (16,5 °C- 19,4 °C) sabah hava sıcaklığından ...
