Hibernation Leads to Altered Gut Communities in Bumblebee Queens (Bombus terrestris)
Many reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and insects practice some form of hibernation during which their metabolic rate is drastically reduced. This allows them to conserve energy and survive the harsh winter conditions with little or no food.
