No, the average temperature increases in smaller animals, and decreases in bigger animals as does their metabolism, which is strongly related to it. Also, temperature varies slightly on a daily basis, following the biological clock or rhythm. The changes in metabolism can be proved in a simpler way, by meassuring the relation between pulse and breathing. Every mammal breathes every four heartbeats, even if their hearts go faster or slower.

No, the body temperatures of warm blooded animals (all mammals and birds, some sharks, some types of turtle as well) vary depending on their activity.

Here are some body temperatures of animals (in degrees celcius):
Human: 37
Cow - 38
Dog - 39
Parakeet (bird) - 40
House Mouse - 36.9

Most of the heat is generated through metabolic activities and the body temp is maintained by the circulating blood. We get heat by breaking down food into its constituents and then the minerals and nutrients are used up for body building and repair. Fats are also burned in exterme cases like exposure to cold

No. The temp depends on metabolic rate and mobility. smaller animals have higher metabolic rate and higher temp. The temp of birds body is around 41 much higher than us

No. If you have a dog, even it has a higher body temperature than you do.

No. Check out the Great white Shark or the Sloth.
