title: Development of thermoregulation in the newborn lesser bushbaby (Galago senegalensis moholi, Smith 1839).
abstract: The temperature-regulating system in bushbabies operates from the 1st day of life. The postnatal metabolism decreases from the 5th (2.9 ml O2/g-h) to the 140th day (0.7 ml O2/g-h) to the level of the adults.
