A light-hearted illustration set in thirteen-lined ground squirrel burrow by Neil Smith (www.neilmithillustration.co.uk). The image shows a pup talking to four other pups. The pup says 'OK pups. our mass-adjusted metabolic rate has peaked. Let’s get ready to wean and start our growth spurt'.
Newborns go through extraordinary change during the 1st year of life & now @jesslli.bsky.social @zoology.ubc.ca reveals the metabolic changes experienced by 13-lined ground squirrels, which prioritise development during weaning and a growth spurt @ 30days
