Why why why do animals sleep in the daytime?

Answer 1

Instead of giving you some scientific reason about why we need sleep, I'm just going to keep it simple:

We no sleep, we go cray.

Without sleep, we start seeing things. We just get tired and then we pass out. It's as simple as that.

Answer 2

Well to be completely fair, you can go to bed at any time of day.

But think about it this way, we are not nocturnal creatures, and the sun gives us energy. (Vitamin D, remember?) So mostly just human habit.

In fact, some people (like in the far north) go to sleep in the day because it is total night for an entire season!

Answer 3

bats don't sleep at night. They sleep during the day, then use echo location at night to find food, and to find their way around

Answer 4

many animals such as cats sleep for up to 18 hours a day, so they dont just sleep during the day

Answer 5

because theyr'e tired!
