Exploring the relationship between mammal size and their circulatory systems, the author presents groundbreaking research that identifies a physiological factor influencing body size differences. By comparing animals like mice and elephants, the study reveals why larger mammals thrive despite similar heart structures and environmental conditions. The findings also explain the inverse relationship between mammalian metabolic rates and size, offering potential applications in husbandry and animal breeding, where size can be manipulated for specific needs, akin to historical practices with domestic dogs.
