Why do some animals that live in the northern regions hibernate while the animals that live in the southern regions do not?
Animals hibernate to conserve energy. When you sleep, you don't use much energy compared to when you are awake, exercising, or doing whatever.
During the winter in polar climates, it becomes colder and harder to find food; a deadly combination. So to balance it out, animals hibernate to conserve energy.

Do Australian snakes hibernate?
As with any snakes, Australian snakes may or may not hibernate, according to the weather. Snakes are cold-blooded, and rely on the heat of the sun to raise their body temperature enough for them to become active. Snakes shelter in rock crevices and logs during cold weather and come out on warm days to sunbake. While they are less active in the cooler months throughout Queensland, the Northern Territory, northern South Australia, Western Australian (except the far southern region) and New South Wales (except for the Alpine areas and High Country), they do not hibernate in these areas. In Tasmania, southern Victoria, the Alpine regions of Victoria and the southern coast of South Australia, snakes do hibernate.
