Beaver body temperature
100 consecutive telemetric measurements on the body temperature of a female Canadian beaver,
Castor canadensis, taken at 10-minute intervals. The animal remained in its lodge for the first 38
recordings and then moved outside, at which point there was a sustained temperature rise.

Seal position
Hawaiian monk seals, Monachus schauinslandi, number around 1300, are endemic to the Hawaiian
Islands and are the most endangered species of marine mammal that lives entirely within the
jurisdiction of the United States. The species has been declining partly owing to poor juvenile survival
which is evidently related to poor foraging success. Data have been collected recently on the foraging
habitats, movements, and behaviors of monk seals throughout the Northwestern and main Hawaiian
Islands.
