⚠️Warning ⚠️ : be NICE ! ❗️
They’ll be looking for somewhere to Bruminate : Hibernation is a deeper and longer version of torpor. Brumation, on the other hand, is specific to reptiles and amphibians that enter a state of 'deep sleep' where they undergo the same process of inactivity and low body temperature, heart rate, metabolic rate, and respiratory rate drops.

Had an enquire regarding 🐍 reptile 🦎
winter state... like a lot of animals ; they want to hibernate ... however ; They will Bruminate : This is different from hibernation in mammals: hibernation involves deep sleep through a period of dormancy with very few physiological processes taking place within the body (true hibernation)
