Hibernation begin mostly in the Winter. Animals such as squirrles store food to last during the winter. Some animal fall into a very deep sleep and others don't. They usually stay in a burrow or a cave or any place to keep them warm. When they fall asleep their body temperature lowers and their heartbeat decreases.THANKS!
