Thirteen-lined ground squirrels are heterothermic hibernators. Schematic of sampling time-points selected for RNA-seq analysis. Tb for sampled animals: InterBout Arousal (IBA) 34.1°C ± 2.9°C, Entrance (Ent) 25.4°C ± 1.8°C, Late Torpor (LT) 5.9°C ± 0.5°C, Arousing (Ar) 8.7°C ± 2.1°C. Tb was assumed to be 37°C for Summer Active (SA) and SpD (Spring Dark) animals due to observed animal activity.
