When the temps drop, koi go into a deep state of rest called torpor, kind of like hibernation. Their metabolism slows down, they stop eating, and they relax near the bottom until spring. So if your fish seem quiet this winter… just know they're sleeping. 😴 | I Love Ponds.com

❄️ During winter, raccoons can go into a torpor, where they will sleep for days or weeks at a time. This state is similar to hibernation and slows down their metabolism. Garcia is certainly less active when the weather turns cold, which is why he prefers to stay in his den box while eating. #speciesofthemonth #raccoon #sanctuary #pittsboronc #iamwild | Carolina Tiger Rescue

Some scientists have said that black bears actually enter a state called "torpor." This is similar to hibernation, but less extreme. Bears do lower their metabolism, heart rate, breathing, like all other hibernators, but they difffer in that they are easily wake-able, and don't lower their body temperature as much as true hibernators like ground squirrels. Whether it's torpor or hibernation, we know that they have adapted to colder temperatures and lower food supplies! — #bears #blackbears #wild

🐻 Bears don’t actually hibernate during the winter. Instead, they enter a state known as torpor—a deep sleep that allows them to conserve energy to survive winter. 🌯 During torpor, they don’t eat, drink, urinate, or defecate. ⚡️ They can survive without food and water by lowering their body temperatures while their bodies breakdown stored fat for energy. 💤 And they can wake up quickly if bothered. | Naturalist's Guide
