- Hibernation is a seasonal heterothermy characterized by low body-temperature, slow breathing and heart-rate, and low metabolic rate. It most commonly occurs during winter months. The equivalent during the summer months is aestivation. Hibernation functions to conserve energy when sufficient food is unavailable.
