Flexibility in metabolic rate and activity level determines individual variation in overwinter performance.

Oecologia - 1 Nov 2016

Auer Sonya K, Salin Karine, Anderson Graeme J, Metcalfe Neil B

Abstract excerpt

Energy stores are essential for the overwinter survival of many temperate and polar animals, but individuals within a species often differ in how quickly they deplete their reserves. These disparities in overwinter performance may be explained by differences in their physiological and behavioral flexibility in response to food scarcity. However, little is known about whether individuals exhibit correlated or...
