1 Introduction In more northerly environments, such as Canada's boreal region, temperatures are warming faster than the global average (Woo et al. 2008; Zhang et al. 2021; He and Pomeroy 2023), which can challenge thermoregulatory regimes of mammals. Northern parts of Canada are also experiencing increasingly wetter and warmer weather, while the Prairie provinces to the south face hotter and drier conditions (Singh et al. 2020).
