Conteúdo: 	Panting in Sauromalus obesus is effective enough to keep deep body temperature (Tc) and brain temperature (Tb) below an amient temperature of 45C foe extended periods of time and has a greater cooling effect on the brain than on the remainder of the body. Six animals maintained Tc and Tb 0.9C (+-0.08 standard error) and 2.7C (+-0.2 standard error) respectively lower than the ambient temperature of 45C. It is possible that intracranial vascular shunts play a role in cranial cooling during panting.
