What is the significance of hibernation in the life of animals?

In the wild, animals cannot always shelter from bad weather, temperature extremes, accumulate and preserve food. Therefore, nature has provided for animals the ability to hibernate. This helps keep the body alive in difficult times. Temperatures are usually low in winter and there is not enough food for some animals. For example, hedgehogs, badgers, bats, jerboas, bears. During hibernation, the temperature in the body decreases and all processes become slower. In this state, animals can be up to 7 months.
