Decreases in body temperature and body mass constitute pre-hibernation remodelling in the Syrian golden hamster, a facultative mammalian hibernator

Hibernation is an adaptive strategy for surviving during periods with little or no food availability, by profoundly reducing the metabolic rate and the core body temperature (T(b)). Obligate hibernators (e.g. bears, ground squirrels, etc.) hibernate every winter under the strict regulation of endoge...
