Technically, yes and no. Torpor, a state of reduced metabolic activity for a short time, does happen in humans when they sleep. However, the rate of decreased metabolism and drop in temperature is pretty insignificant when compared with the likes of humming birds that undergo torpor in the evening/night. Therefore, few textbooks call the human sleep a state of torpor. The upshot is that humans DO NOT experience torpor.
Hibernation is an annual ritual . Torpor is sleepiness in a similar way, but not necessarily hibernation.
