Abstract Artificial roosting structures (e.g. bat boxes) are widely used as conservation tools for many animals, including bats. Although it is relatively easy to monitor bat box temperatures, we know little about the effect of design on temperatures

Pit vipers detect infrared radiation by means of temperature contrasts created on their pit organ membranes. Signals from pit organs integrate with visual signals in the optic tectum, leading to the conjecture that the facial pits operate as an exten

Understanding microhabitat preferences of animals is critical for effective conservation, especially for temperate-zone bats, which receive fitness benefits from selecting optimal roost microhabitats. Artificial roost structures are increasingly bein

Sensory information drives the ecology and behaviour of animals, and some animals are able to detect environmental cues unavailable to us. For example, rattlesnakes use infrared (IR) radiation to detect warm prey at night when visual cues are reduced

1: Thermal refuges are widely used by animals of all taxonomic groups and are critical to survival in severe weather. 2: Human activities are reducing the availability of natural refuges; consequently, artificial refuges are used as conservation mana

The pit organ defining pit vipers (Crotalinae) contains a membrane covered with temperature receptors that detect thermal radiation from environmental surfaces. Temperature is both the environmental parameter being sensed and the mechanism by which t
