The science inside
- Animals & Zoology
- Ecosystems
Your child will meet:
- Insulating fur, feathers, and body fat can slow heat loss but work together with behavior and energy use.
- Animals respond to winter through different strategies that can include migration, hibernation, torpor, food storage, shelter, or remaining active.
- Cold survival requires balancing energy gained from food with energy spent maintaining body function and movement.
- A strategy that works for one species may fail for another because bodies, diets, and habitats differ.
