The difference between hibernation and estivation.

What is the difference between hibernation and migration?
I was wondering the same thing, so I researched it and found out. To put it in a nutshell, hibernation is when the body goes to "sleep" to save energy so the animal doesn't have to eat to survive when food resources are scarce as in the winter. Migration, on the other hand, is about moving to another warmer area when it's very cold during winter so that the animal has more access to food.

What is hibernation how does hibernation help an animal meet its needs?
Hibernation is an adaptation that allows animals to survive cold temperatures when food is scarce. Hibernating animals slow their metabolism so that they use less energy, which enables them to live off fat storage until the air is warmer.
What is the scientific term used for summer sleep?
