• Thermal quality influences habitat selection at multiple spatial scales in milksnakes (2006, background): “…been shown to select habitats based on the distribution of prey (Madsen & Shine, 1996) and hibernation sites (Reinert & Kodrich, 1982; Reinert, 1993), based on predator avoidance (Webb & Whiting, 2005), and based on thermoregulatory requirements (Reinert, 1984; BlouinDemers & Weatherhead, 2001a).”
