Erroneous definition?
It seems that something is basically wrong with this article. "Klepto" means to steal or to borrow, thus kleptothermy refers primarily to ectotherms borrowing heat from endotherms. It may include the huddling in which the members share the generated heat, but it is not the basic concept. --Polinizador (talk) 21:35, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
