Being fat has nothing to do with the body temperature of an animal. It depends on if its warm or cold blooded. Warm blooded animals (mammals and birds) keep their bodies at constant temperatures. To do this they eat alot of food and only very little of it is converted into body mass. And a cold blooded animal's body temperature goes along with the environment, but their blood is alot warmer than warm blooded mammals. Therefore they move faster when it is cooler and sluggish when its hot. In conclusion cold blooded animals are the warmer ones but not because of the body fat.
