Hibernation
In fact, as argued here, it is likely that opportunistic heterotherms may be better equipped to deal with the challenges of anthropogenic influences than homeotherms because heterotherms have highly flexible energy requirements, can limit foraging and reduce the risk of predation, and often are also long-lived.

Low-Lying Electronic States and Revised Thermochemistry of TiCl, TiCl 2, and TiCl3
Thermochemical analyses of gaseous equilibrium data involving the species TiCl, TiCl2, and TiCl3 were revised with the aid of more recent information on the low-lying electronic states, yielding more reliable values for the enthalpies of formation, ΔfH°298, of 40.9, −49.0, and −121.5 kcal mol−1, all ±2 kcal mol−1, for gaseous TiCl, TiCl2, and TiCl3, respectively.

Multiple Distinct Risk Loci for Nicotine Dependence Identified By Dense Coverage of the Complete Family of Nicotinic Receptor Subunit (CHRN) Genes
We analyzed 226 SNPs covering the complete family of 16 CHRN genes, which encode the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits, in a sample of 1,050 nicotine-dependent cases and 879 non-dependent controls of European descent.
