1. Starvation for 6 days reduced whole body mass and total body lipids to 76 and 71%, respectively, of pre-starvation levels in weight-gain phase ground squirrels. After 4 days of refeeding, body mass increased to 86% of pre-starvation level but total body lipids had not changed from starvation levels. 2. Compared to the fed state, fatty acid synthetase (FAS) activity in white adipose tissue (WAT) was 15 and 31% in starved and refed 4-day animals, respectively, and in liver was 26 and 21% in starved and refed 4-day animals, respectively. Lipids depleted by starvation during prehibernatory fattening were not rapidly restored in Richardson's ground squirrels. 3. Changes in these parameters with starvation and refeeding were similar in weight-loss phase animals. 4. In control animals of both phases, WAT accounted for at least 90% of total FAS activity and liver nearly all of the remainder.
