Heat or Insulation: Behavioral Titration of Mouse Preference for Warmth or Access to a Nest

In laboratories, mice are housed at 20–24°C, which is below their lower critical temperature (≈30°C). This increased thermal stress has the potential to alter scientific outcomes. Nesting material should allow for improved behavioral thermoregulation and thus alleviate this thermal stress. Nesting b...
