Even during thermoregulation, however, many animals experience pronounced variability in body temperature, and may regulate to different body temperatures depending on environmental conditions. Here we test the hypothesis that there is a trade-off between regulating to lower body temperatures in cooler conditions and locomotory and metabolic performance. Animals (estuarine crocodiles, Crocodylus porosus) acclimated to cold (N=8) conditions had significantly lower maximum and mean daily body temperatures after 33 days than warm-acclimated animals (N=9), despite performing characteristic thermoregulatory behaviours. Concomitant with behavioural changes, maximum sustained swimming speed (Ucrit) shifted to the respective mean body temperatures during acclimation (cold=20\u00b0C, warm=29\u00b0C), but there was no difference in the maxima between acclimation groups. Mitochondrial oxygen consumption changed significantly during acclimation, and maximum respiratory control ratios coincided with mean body temperatures in liver, muscle and heart tissues. There were significant changes in the activities of regulatory metabolic enzymes (lactate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, cytochrome c oxidase) and these were tissue specific. The extraordinary shift in behaviour and locomotory and metabolic performance shows that within individuals, behaviour and physiology covary to maximise performance in different environments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1242\/jeb.02585","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,1]],"date-time":"2006-12-01T22:07:49Z","timestamp":1165010869000},"page":"4869-4877","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":129,"title":["Compensation for environmental change by complementary shifts of thermal sensitivity and thermoregulatory behaviour in an ectotherm"],"prefix":"10.1242","volume":"209","author":[{"given":"E.
