What is Aestivation in Animals?​

Answer»

Estivation (or aestivation, if you're in EUROPE) is the SUMMERTIME version of hibernation, when ANIMALS go into a state of dormancy to lessen the effects of HIGH TEMPERATURES and/or drought. While an estivating animal's bodily rhythms do slow, they are not as fully dormant as animals who hibernate in the winter.
