Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index.

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