Changes in body temperature following the initiation or completion of flight in Miniopterus. (AT = + 10°) but at the same time, greatly below the level of more active states; 10° less than the actively flying animal. Some animals become active spontaneously and others were forced to be active. Under these conditions shorter flights were made and lower body temperatures were recorded than before (36° vs. 39°). The animals which made prolonged flights averaged 3° warmer, equivalent to the "short flight" (3+) condition in the fresh bats, but still ° below the "long flight" (4+) level in fresh bats. Figure 3 presents successive measurements on individuals to show temperature change in active bats. During flights an average increase of °/min. was seen for the first two or three minutes. After this the temperature leveled out abruptly, showing a quite positive regulation at this higher temperature. The decline in body temperature following flight was more gradual (—°/min.) but could continue for as long as 10 minutes without leveling off at a lower value. Figure 2.
