Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.

Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
