Dwarf Mongooses Lose Body Mass in Hot Weather due to Limited Behavioural Plasticity
Using long‐term data from wild dwarf mongooses (Helogale parvula), we demonstrate that on hot days (≥ 35°C) compared to matched cooler ones (≤ 33°C), mongooses emerged and commenced foraging earlier in morning and arrived at and entered their overnight sleeping burrow later in the evening, but we find no further evidence of behavioural plasticity ...
