Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception.

Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
