TL;DR: Survival time is therefore very short if the animals are hit in the thorax, and is likely to be further reduced if the charge which is currently used is increased, or, even better, if shrapnel (fragment scattering) grenades are used instead of blast grenades.

TL;DR: It is proposed that reindeer regulate body and, particularly, brain temperature under heavy heat loads by a combination of panting, at first through the nose, but later, when the heat load and the minute volume requirements increase due to exercise, primarily through the mouth and that they eventually resort to selective brain cooling.

TL;DR: Coronary flow during diving was regulated jointly by a marked reduction in myocardial oxygen requirement (metabolic) and vasoconstrictor control (neurogenic) and therefore have relevance for therapeutic approaches to reduction of myocardia ischemic injury in man.

TL;DR: The results of these experiments showed that the ratio of endocardial to epicardial perfusion was unaltered, even in prolonged diving, indicating that the seal's heart maintained its functional integrity and was not ischemic, despite its low blood flow, throughout the dives.
