Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book for 7 - 10 year oldsLets Learn About Animals that HibernateAround the world, there are a lot of animals who like to sleep through the winter, or other times of the year. This action is called hibernation (hi*ber*nay*tion) . Many people think only bears do this but there are other animals who like a long nap too. You can see animals running all around digging holes and looking for nuts on the ground and other food that will help them go through the long winter months.Some animals sleep in trees, like squirrels do. Some sleep in caves or hollows, like bears do. Many of these animals try to find a nice hole in the ground because even when it is very cold outside, their home stays warm when it is underground.They want to be safe from the snow, wind and rains of springtime. Their home has to be just right and fit them so that it can stay warm as they sleep through all kinds of weather.Not all animals sleep the whole winter so let us look at the two kinds of hibernating animals, light sleepers and deep sleepers.Light Sleepers are animals like bears and raccoons that wake up from time to time. On warm days they may want to go out and take a walk around. Heavy Sleepers are called True Hibernators. They go into a very deep sleep in the winter. If you saw them they might even look like they were not alive any more, that is how slow they breathe.Lets find out more about these two types of animals. You may even have seen some getting ready for Winter near where you live. Can you guess what some of them are before you read more? Why not write them down and see how many you can guess.We will learn a little about each animal and how it prepares for winter.Table of ContentsHibernationLight SleepersBearsChipmunksGround SquirrlesSkunksRaccoonsHedgehogsCrocodilesTurtlesBeesHeavy SleepersMarmotsPrairie DogsHamstersFrogsGarter SnakesBats

Book excerpt: In this cozy bedtime story, follow a child and his grandma through a winter landscape to explore how the Earth goes to sleep for winter. Spot the sleeping animals as the tale unfolds, then learn about their hibernation habits from the information pages at the end. Co-authors Sean Taylor (picture book author) and Alex Morss (ecologist, journalist, and educator) offer a gentle introduction to the concept of hibernation. In the frosty, quiet forest, the snow blankets the ground and the trees have shed their leaves. Where have all the animals gone? Are they asleep too? In each cutaway scene, see what the child cannot--that underground below his feet are dens with sleeping creatures, and within the hollow trunks of trees, animals are nesting. After the story, annotated illustrations explain the hibernation facts for each animal and what they will do when they wake up for spring. Cozy up as you expand you and your child's knowledge of the natural world.

Download or read book Ecological Physiology of Daily Torpor and Hibernation written by Fritz Geiser and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth overview on the functional ecology of daily torpor and hibernation in endothermic mammals and birds. The reader is well introduced to the physiology and thermal energetics of endothermy and underlying different types of torpor. Furthermore, evolution of endothermy as well as reproduction and survival strategies of heterothermic animals in a changing environment are discussed. Endothermic mammals and birds can use internal heat production fueled by ingested food to maintain a high body temperature. As food in the wild is not always available, many birds and mammals periodically abandon energetically costly homeothermic thermoregulation and enter an energy-conserving state of torpor, which is the topic of this book. Daily torpor and hibernation (multiday torpor) in these heterothermic endotherms are the most effective means for energy conservation available to endotherms and are characterized by pronounced temporal and controlled reductions in body temperature, energy expenditure, water loss, and other physiological functions. Hibernators express multiday torpor predominately throughout winter, which substantially enhances winter survival. In contrast, daily heterotherms use daily torpor lasting for several hours usually during the rest phase, some throughout the year. Although torpor is still widely considered to be a specific adaptation of a few cold-climate species, it is used by many animals from all climate zones, including the tropics, and is highly diverse with about 25-50% of all mammals, but fewer birds, estimated to use it. While energy conservation during adverse conditions is an important function of torpor, it is also employed to permit or facilitate energy-demanding processes such as reproduction and growth, especially when food supply is limited. Even migrating birds enter torpor to conserve energy for the next stage of migration, whereas bats may use it to deal with heat. Even though many heterothermic species will be challenged by anthropogenic influences such as habitat destruction, introduced species, novel pathogens and specifically global warming, not all are likely to be affected in the same way. In fact it appears that opportunistic heterotherms because of their highly flexible energy requirements, ability to limit foraging and reduce the risk of predation, and often pronounced longevity, may be better equipped to deal with anthropogenic challenges than homeotherms. In contrast strongly seasonal hibernators, especially those restricted to mountain tops, and those that have to deal with new diseases that are difficult to combat at low body temperatures, are likely to be adversely affected. This book addresses researchers and advanced students in Zoology, Ecology and Veterinary Sciences.
