Changes in underground roosting patterns to optimize energy conservation in hibernating bats

Published in Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2019

This paper describes hibernation as a dynamic process where bats change the location inside the hibernacula where they are hibernating and the size of groups that they are hibernating in order to optimize energy conservation.
