In response to hypoxic stress, many animals compensate for a reduced cellular O2 supply by suppressing total metabolism, thereby reducing O2 demand. For small endotherms that are native to high-altitude environments, this is not always a viable strategy, as the capacity for sustained aerobic thermogenesis is critical for survival during periods of...
