About this episode

In this episode, we’ll learn how animals survive the cold of winter. We’ll discover that animals use three strategies to make it through: hibernation, where they slow down and sleep through the cold; migration, where they travel long distances to find warmth and food; and adaptation, where they change their behavior or appearance to thrive in freezing temperatures. Whether it’s a bear snoozing in its den, geese flying south, or a snowshoe hare blending into the snow, we’ll explore the amazing ways animals face the chill of winter. ❄️🐻🦢🐇
