do cold blooded animals do best in cold weather? or hotblooded?

I have been really curious about this since i am always the one that isnt cold (in my family)…

I was wondering if the animals that live in cold weather are hotblooded or cold blooded… like penguins for example and if there really is a pattern.

also i was wondering what makes it that certain people feel cold more than others, any scientific reason??

Both warm-blooded or cold blooded animals can live in colder environments. Warm-blooded arctic dwellers like penguins, polar bears, seals etc... need a steady food source and/or significant body fat reserves. Fish are cold-blooded animals that do quite well in cold conditions. Some have actually evolved to have anti-freeze like compounds in their bloodstream.

To answer your other question, I think a person's metabolic rate and body fat % are the main determining factors that make an individual more or less sensitive to changes in temperature.

Based on my experience girls have a much narrower range of temperatures in which they're comfortable because they (generally) have a higher body fat % and a slower metabolism than guys.
