This is a picture of a cat. A cat is an endotherm. An endotherm is a warm-blooded animal, or an animal that maintains it's body heat independent of the environment. This cat keeps himself at the same body temperature regardless of where he is. His body heat does not depend on the temperature of the air around him, like a fishes would in the ocean. His body temperature is constantly maintained and doesn't rapidly drop or go up.
