Our bodies constantly release moisture. If too much humidity builds up in our sleeping bag, we freeze, and a good night's sleep is impossible. Wool has the ingenious ability to absorb moisture and release it only in small doses. This is why evaporative cooling doesn't occur in our Alpine wool sleeping bag, because wool still keeps you warm even when damp!
