Thermoregulation that maintains a stable internal body temperature regardless of external influence.

We also examined fall animals transitioning between fed homeothermy and fasting heterothermy.
2
Small-bodied hibernators partition the year between active homeothermy and hibernating heterothermy accompanied by fasting.
3
The physiology of small mammalian hibernators shifts profoundly over a year, from summer homeothermy to winter heterothermy.
