0 (of certain animals, eg hedgehogs) to pass the winter in a condition like sleep. -- (สัตว์) จำศีลในฤดูหนาว
I'd rather hibernate in a house for summer than aestivate in a house for winter.
The ability to hibernate is the most dramatic example of phenotypic plasticity displayed by mammals.
Because the hibernating mammal arouses periodically from torpor throughout the hibernation season, the ability to function at euthermic temperatures must be maintained continuously.
Nevertheless, the survival of the metacercariae in hibernating ants plays an important role in the epidemiology of dicrocoeliosis.
The percentage of hibernating larvae was especially high in pot no. 218 (21 larvae out of 52).
The global rates of protein synthesis have been determined to be profoundly reduced in hibernating animals.
In the other broods either all the larvae developed actively or 1 to 3 larvae remained hibernating.
Such changes play a part in the survival of plants and hibernating animals and bacteria during the winter.
