The book "Metabolic Adaptation to Climate and Distribution of the Possum Procyon Lotor and Other Procyonids" is co-authored by Kathleen P. Mahlke-Johnson, John N. Mugaas, and John Seidensticker. This book examines the influence of atmospheric conditions on the metabolic processes of various species of opossums, in particular the Procyon Lotor opossum variety. The authors consider how adaptation to climatic conditions affects the distribution of these animals, their behavior and ecological role in the natural environment. The book contains both theoretical chapters on metabolism and climatic factors, as well as applied studies that help to better understand the life and adaptation of opossums in different environments. This book is useful for biologists, students and anyone interested in the ecology and adaptation of animals to climate change. .
