Resumo[Objective] The rate of the oxygen consumption of chipmunk at different temperatures was measured to understand its standard metabolism.[Method] The rate of the oxygen consumption of chipmunk under the condition of 5 temperatures: 15,20,25,30 and 35 ℃,was measured.[Results] In the range of the temperature from 15-20 ℃,the amount and rate of oxygen consumption of chipmunk were generally increased with temperature-increasing and in the range of the temperature from 20-35 ℃ range,the amount and rate of oxygen consumption of chipmunk were generally reduced with temperature-increasing.There was little relation between the body weight of the chipmunk and the amount and rate of its oxygen consumption.Both the amount and rate of oxygen consumption of the chipmunk showed a significant linear regression relationship with temperature.And a linear regression equation of the oxygen consumption X0(ml/ h) and the temperature t was: X0= 244.03-2.66t and a linear regression equation of the rate oxygen consumption Q0[L/(kg·h)] and the temperature t was Q0=2 249.3-24.49t.[Conclusion] The basic data for the protection and in-depth research on mice was accumulated.
