Frozen, Flying, or Fast Asleep!
The coolest ways animals survive winter…
Imagine you are in Antarctica and it’s freezing cold. You would probably be wearing a heavy coat or light a fire to keep your surroundings warm. Winter can get very cold and we stay warm by bundling up inside, but how do animals survive the cold?

Firstly, let’s talk about the most interesting one. Did you know that in the winter some frogs freeze? Yep, they freeze and when it gets warm they unfreeze. That is so cool… but huh.
Hibernation: One way animals can stay warm is hibernation. They bundle up and just sleep for the whole winter. I don’t get it, who would want to sleep for the whole season? Boring! I think I like skiing, drinking hot cocoa, and traveling more than that.
Migration: Some animals migrate to warmer places. Birds have a really fun way of doing it. They migrate in a group and it looks really cool. These animals are so lucky, they get a free vacation to anywhere! So unfair!
Now I am going to migrate to Bora Bora like those birds. Mom, you heard nothing. 😄
