Carl Bergmann, a 19th-century German biologist, noticed a curious pattern to the average size attained by warm-blooded animals of the same species.
His principle, known nowadays as Bergmann's Rule, states that the smaller sub-species a particular species are to be found in the warmer parts of the ecological range and that the larger races inhabit the cooler districts.
