TEMPERATURE OF MAN AND ANIMALS. 



789 



The temperature of other warm-blooded animals. The observations 

 upon the temperature of animals are numerous, but have not been 

 repeated often enough under different conditions which are known to 

 affect the temperature of man. On this account, and also because 

 animals are known to have a somewhat variable temperature, it is 

 impossible in most cases to give the mean temperature. The following 

 table gives some of the results obtained by different observers :
