“…Although further studies revealed a number of species adopting a cathemeral lifestyle (Tattersall, 2008), across a broad diversity of mammalian taxa (Curtis & Rasmussen, 2006), it continued to be thought to be rather rare (Halle, 2006). However, in recent years, studies are revealing an increasing number of species that are active during both the light and dark portions of the daily cycle, including amongst arthropods (Mezőfi et al ., 2019; Stork, Smith & Cooper, 2020), fish (McCauley et al ., 2012; Bosiger & McCormick, 2014), lizards (Gamble et al ., 2015; Vidan et al ., 2019; Slavenko et al ., 2022), birds (Hall, 2008 a , b ) and mammals (Roll, Dayan & Kronfeld‐Schor, 2006; Bennie et al ., 2014; Santini, Rojas & Donati, 2015; Maor et al ., 2017). A failure to recognise the commonness of cathemeral behaviour, both in mammals and more broadly, is arguably understandable, given that although humans can show significant flexibility in activity times they are largely a diurnal species, and primarily carry out fieldwork during the daytime (Gaston, 2019).…”
