Discussion

  • Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
  • temps are guess; actual body temperature almost equals the local environmental temp

Facts

  • there are no auricles, the eyes are covered with fur, (Ref: Wiki)
  • the western coast of South Africa and in south western Namibia (Ref: Wiki)
