What is Hibernation? Why Do Animals Hibernate in the Winter?

By slowing down their metabolism and conserving energy, they can avoid the need to search for food or migrate to warmer climates. It’s truly fascinating! Using Teach Starter resources, you can immerse your students into the intricacies of animal hibernation, exploring the reasons behind it and highlighting some incredible examples of animals that hibernate around the world.
