摘要：

Mean (±SE) CO2 production was 1749 ± 144 ml/day during pregnancy and 2770 ± 351 ml/day during lactation. Including estimates of tissue production and milk export, average requirement for assimilated energy was 48.9 and 105.1 kJ/day for pregnant and lactating females, respectively. Daily water flux was 8.47 and 17.07 ml/day for pregnant and lactating females, respectively. E. fuscus obtained >66% of its water preformed in the diet, but 20-22% of daily water intake was from drinking. -from Authors
