Springboks Facilitate Body Heat Dissipation

The springbok’s fur is only 4mm long, which is extremely short given the size of their bodies. However, the fur has high heat conductivity, easily dissipating heat from the animal’s body into the air. The springbok further prevent heat absorption by turning their white buttocks toward the sun to reflect the sun’s light and warmth away. The ability to facilitate heat loss has allowed the springbok to adapt to the hot climate of Africa.

Resouce/Energy/Information Transmission & Production:: Heat release

Defense/Stability:: Temperature control

Other

The ability of springbok’s fur to regulate body temperature can be applied to the development of heat dissipating clothes made with soft fabrics that allow heat to escape even during hot, summer days.
