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.
