    All animals are producing heat by metabolism, and so are naturally hotter than their environments. Being in an environment that is as hot as your ideal body temperature means your metabolism raises your temperature above the ideal.

    The only way around this is active cooling - like sweating - which is generally uncomfortable as a signal that you are expending energy on keeping cool and try and get somewhere cooler where you won’t have to expend as much energy on that.
