🐆 Snow Leopard Winter Lab: Fur Insulation, Wind Chill and Curl-Up Heat Balance

How does a snow leopard survive a -35 C blizzard? Change fur thickness, wind, altitude, posture and rock shelter and watch a cylinder-shell heat-balance model (conduction through fur, Churchill-Bernstein convection, sky radiation, Kleiber metabolism) predict heat loss, lower critical temperature and the core temperature over a 24 h cycle.
