of Tc we considered. However, we did not measure power consumption inside dens when
Tc>O°C (Table 4.2). When comparing arboreal to terrestrial microhabitats, power consumed
by mOllnts was generally 10wer in terrestrial than in arboreal microhabitats (Fig. 4.2a)
although the difference was non significant (Table 4.l model 3). Also, Tc interacted with the
microhabitat to influence the power consllmed by the mOllnts, with the result that the power
consumption increased more slowly in terrestrial than in arboreal microhabitats (Table 4.1
model 3) when Tc decreased. Finally, when comparing open and covered microhabitats, the
power consllmed by mOllnts was generally 10wer in covered than in open microhabitats
(Table 4.1 model 4, Fig. 4.2b). However, Tc interacted with the microhabitat to influence the
power consumed by the mounts so that the power consumption increased more slowly in
open than in covered microhabitats (Table 4.1 model 4) when Tc decreased. At cold
temperatures (TcO°C, we used this value as an
approximation for calculating power consumed in non-den microhabitats as a percentage
of power consumed in "den"
