지문
During the autumn, animals that hibernate have a special compound in their veins known as the hibernation trigger.
This compound kicks in when the temperature drops and daylight hours decrease.
Once activated, it prompts these creatures to get ready for the upcoming cold months. Some critters hoard provisions so they have something to munch on upon awakening, while others bulk up by consuming a lot of food in the late summer and autumn to accumulate additional fat.
This fat not only keeps them cozy but also serves as an energy reserve during their slumber.
Moreover, these animals adapt their sleeping quarters for the winter by collecting and stacking leaves and grass to maintain warmth.
