Three species of ectothermic vertebrates: goldfish (Carassius auratus), green tree frogs (Hyla cinerea), and desert iguanas (Dipsosaurus dorsalis) were used in this study. Metabolic rates for each species were determined at the normal afebrile preferred body temperature and at the febrile preferred body temperature or other higher body temperatures. The febrile metabolic rate (or higher rate) was significantly greater than the afebrile metabolic rate (or lower rate) in each species. The average increase in energetic cost for goldfish and desert iguana was 64.5% while the increase for the green tree frog was between 24 and 70%.
金鱼（Carassius auratus）、绿树蛙（Hyla cinerea）和沙漠鬣蜥（Dipsosaurus dorsalis）。在正常无热偏好体温以及发热偏好体温或其他更高体温下测定了每个物种的代谢率。在每个物种中，发热代谢率（或更高代谢率）显著高于无热代谢率（或更低代谢率）。金鱼和沙漠鬣蜥的能量消耗平均增加了64.5%，而绿树蛙的增加幅度在24%至70%之间。
