The accumulation of too much heat within the body is life threatening since metabolism is dependent on the actions of enzymes that only function with a very narrow temperature range. All animals have complex behavioral and physiological adaptations to deal with excess temperature. We divert blood to the skin and sweat to make use of evaporative cooling. Other animals will face the sun so as to present as little of their profile to direct sunlight.

How hyperthermia kills?
Hyperthermia is an abnormal increase in the core body temperature. Extreme hyperthermia (usually defined as greater than 106 degrees F in humans) caused the enzymes within the body's cells to degrade and inactivate. If enough enzymes are deactivated, the cell dies. If enough cells die, or enough of a particular cell such as a cranial neuron die, the organism will also die.
