If winter lasted all year round in a mixed forest, many animals would struggle to survive due to the prolonged cold and scarcity of food. Species that rely on seasonal changes for breeding and foraging would face challenges in reproduction and finding sustenance, leading to population declines. Additionally, some animals may adapt by hibernating or migrating, but those unable to adjust may face extinction. Overall, the ecosystem would experience significant shifts, potentially reducing biodiversity and altering food webs.
Most times, the average temperature in a deciduous forest is around 50*. This allows for a change of seasons. The animals in this forest adapt and depend on a change of seasons. If winter lasted an entire year, all of the plants and trees would lose their leaves for that year. This would cause the animals to lose shelter and cover they seek from these plants. Animals would also lose any food they depend on from those plants. SO, the animals in that deciduous forest would probably die if winter lasted an entire year.
If winter lasted year round in a deciduous forest, many animals would struggle to find food as food sources would be scarce. Some animals may migrate to other areas to survive, while others may hibernate or go into a state of torpor to conserve energy. Overall, the lack of resources and extreme cold temperatures could lead to a decline in animal populations in the long term.
what kinds of animals in the deciduous forest look for food i the winter

they were close to trees for fuel and had animals to hunt.
Because in rainforests the winter isn´t cold like in temperate forests. There´s just a wet and a dry season. So the animals don´t need to hibernate in order to save energy.
If you mean a forest in winter, then most animals migrate in winter, so they usually aren't around, but you can find animals in the forest when it's not cold and snowy such as; deer, rabbits, squirrels, and chipmunks.
