Shadow has the hardest time with the heat and he's resorted to sleeping under the dense vegetation in the back of the enclosure. This is great for him, but the drawback is that we can't see him from the surveillance camera nor from the lab window. This means frequent trips to retirement to check on him, which usually gets him up and defeats the purpose of letting them rest during the heat. At least we can turn on the sprinkler hose every time we go out, so when he gets up, he has nice cool soil at the front of the enclosure where he greets.
