Some species may employ either type, depending on circumstances (Muma 1966; Cloudsley-Thompson 1991). Interm

Their metabolic rates are lower and a greater proportion of their food can go directly into such vital functions as activity, growth, fat storage and reproduction than is true of endotherms (birds and mammals).

One way is to reduce energy expenditure during lean times by becoming dormant (see Chap. 6). Another is to synchronize activities with heavy energy requirements, such as reproduction, with periods of peak ava

All of this means that periodically energy is scarce, the time available for its acquisition is limited, and activity may impose excessive energetic expenditures. Clearly, persist
