do bats hibernate?

Answer 1

Not all species of bats hibernate Some migrate to warmer climates. Others do both: migrate south, then hibernate for part of the winter there.It depends upon the climate they live in.
In southern climates, some bats do not hibernate at all; they simply go in a daily torpor in the winter.

Torpor is a response bats have to cooler temperatures. They are able to drop their body temperature close to the external air temperatures, thus saving energy. In northern climates, colony-roosting bats begin their hibernation as early as October if the weather is cold. Solitary-roosting bats can withstand cooler temperatures and are sometimes found in more northern areas until November or early December. Solitary-roosting bats are able to wrap their fully furred interfermoral membrane (the tail membrane) tightly around themselves for extra warmth.
