Describes the process of hibernation and the various ways in which different animals use this process to survive in harsh climates. - Crabtree Pub Co
Hibernation is one of natureâs greatest miracles, allowing animals to sleep through periods of extreme cold (and heat). From the tundra to the desert, this ability enables animals to live in some of Earthâs harshest climates. Full-color photographs and vivid text combine to give children a view of the many different ways that animals "sleep it off." Highlights include:⢠how an animalâs body uses fat to survive and even wake itself up⢠how an animal finds and prepares its den for hibernation⢠animals that estivate, or hibernate to escape heat⢠animals that give birth and care for their young during hibernation
