Body water conservation through selective brain cooling by the carotid rete: a physiological feature for surviving climate change?

Some mammals have the ability to lower their hypothalamic temperature below that of carotid arterial blood temperature, a process termed selective brain cooling. Although the requisite anatomical structure that facilitates this physiological process, the carotid rete, is present in members of the Ce...
