Torpor, Brumation, and Hibernation Hike

400 Belfast Rd, Nazareth, PA 18064

Free Event

From bears to frogs, many of Pennsylvania’s wildlife species spend the winter in some form of hibernation. How they hibernate, and for how long, depends on the species and their habitat.  During this program, we will maintain a warm body temperature while hiking to discuss the ways in which wildlife conserve energy during the winter months and learn of different physiological changes animals must undergo to survive the harsh winter conditions. Registration is required.
