Exposure to high ambient temperatures (HAT) is associated with increased mortality, weight loss, immunosuppression, and metabolic malfunction in birds, all of which are likely downstream effects of reduced food intake. While the mechanisms mediating the physiological responses to HAT are documented, the neural mechanisms mediating behavioral responses are poorly understood. The aim of the present study was thus to investigate the hypothalamic mechanisms mediating heat-induced anorexia in four-day old broiler chicks. In Experiment 1,
