Answer» Estivation (or aestivation, if you're in Europe) is the SUMMERTIME version of hibernation, when ANIMALS go into a STATE of dormancy to lessen the effects of high temperatures and/or drought. While an estivating animal's bodily rhythms do SLOW, they are not as fully dormant as animals who hibernate in the winter. Hibernation is a state of inactivity and metabolic depression in endotherms. 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. |
