Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception.

Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
