Abstract
Abstract Timing of activity, seasonal changes in food availability, environmental fluctuations, and costs of reproduction are important determinants of an animal's life history. In mountain ground squirrels (Spermophilus), the shortness of the active season influences how they time their activities. I studied timing of the active season, reproduction, and weight loss during hibernation in Columbian ground squirrels (S. columbianus) in Alberta, Canada, from the summer of 1994 to the spring of 1998. Entry into hibernation and emergence from hibernation the following year were earlier for females that did not wean a litter compared with those that did. The active season was shorter and hibernation longer for unsuccessful females than for successful females. Molt of females was earlier when they did not wean a litter than when they did. Date of mating had no influence on success in weaning a litter, but juveniles surviving to yearling age came from litters born earlier than juveniles that did not survive to yearling age. In successfully reproducing females, early entry into hibernation was associated with early mating. Daily and total weight loss during hibernation was higher in females that weaned young than in females that did not wean young.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
