Torpor and Other Physiological Adaptations of the Badger (Taxidea taxus) to Cold Environments [PDF]
Oxygen consumption ($\dot{V}_{O_{2}}$) and heart rate were measured at ambient temperatures between +20 and -40 C. Basal metabolic rate was 0.3 cm³/g·h (65 beats/min), the body temperature was 38 C, the lower critical temperature ($T_lc$) was 10 C, and conductance was 0.01225 cm³/g·h°C.
