Background:Anthropogenic disturbance can negatively affect an animal's energy budget by evoking movement responses.Existing research focuses mainly on immediate displacement as a disturbance effect,since this can be e...
the guides and trackers at Okonjima for supporting the research.In particular,we thank Carla Conradie and Dave Houghton for their hospitality and Dr Mark Jago for veterinary assistance.We thank Dr Cheryl Asa for kindly providing us with a copy of her paper on zoo cheetahs.We thank Dr Tim Caro and 3 other referees whose advice substantially improved our paper.The Namibian Ministry of Environment and Tourism granted permission to conduct the study(permit number 969/2005)。
As one of the few felids that is predominantly diurnal,cheetahs(Acinonyx jubatus)can be exposed to high heat loads in their natural habitat.Little is known about long-term patterns of body temperature and activity(inc...
