Scientists are set to use data gained from ‘eavesdropping’ on nature to build a picture of Australia’s animal life. bit.ly/2DYcP8z

Trees and #woodpiles hold a lot of heat after the sun goes down, allowing #lizards, #snakes, and other ectotherms to thermoregulate even at night. #ThermalCamera #PredatorVision Check out our recent paper - tinyurl.com/u5q33lm
