A reptile is not an endotherm; rather, it is an ectotherm. Ectothermic animals, like reptiles, rely on external environmental temperatures to regulate their body heat. This means they often bask in the sun to warm up or seek shade to cool down. In contrast, endotherms, such as mammals and birds, generate their own body heat internally.
