In tearing apart a rotten diggs-pine
log on a grassy hillside, four slinks were
found coiled up in the slightly moist
rotted wood in the interior of the log.
Temperatures taken in the wood where
the slinks had been (and in one case beneath
a slink in situ) were 10.0°c, 7.6°c and
7.6°c again. The ligards were rather
sluggish. They were found singly.
Other more active slinks were found
in log and under nearby rocks.
