The Koala is one of the sleepiest animals on earth, it typically sleeps between 20 to 22 hours a day. The sloth comes in at second sleeping for about 20 hours a day.
Most bears sleep for seven to eight hours everyday. They become active a half-hour before the sun rises, and bed down for the night an hour or two after the sun sets.
Eight hours of sleep are required because hormones and endorphins are produced as you sleep, during REM cycles. REM cycles, when rapid eye movement occurs, happen about every two hours, and four cycles are required to create enough endorphins to last throughout the day.
a one year old baby may sleep for about 2 hours max. so properly a two year old may sleep for approximately 4 hours maximum.
It depends on the hamster really but I have 3 Russian dwarf campbells and two of them are so active during the early and late hours that they can spend all day sleeping and only wake up for a drink or a little food. The third lives on his own because he doen't get on with others and he can sleep for hours and hours and hours and only tends to come out late a night for a short time compared to the others. Kirsty
According to the national Zoo, giraffes only sleep for about a half-hour a day. This time is typically broken up into about six, five-minute naps. They require less sleep than any other mammal. The giraffe has one of the shortest sleep requirements of any mammal, which is between 10 minutes and two hours in a 24-hour period, averaging 1.9 hours per day.
Since a full day is 24 hours, two thirds of that is 16. 8 hours in a third day 16 hours in a two third day 24 hours in a full day
Its bad for anyone of any age to only sleep two hours a night. You could suffer many things and will have trouble staying awake and focused during the day. Sleeping for nine to twelve hours is healthier.
