What are some examples of torpor?
Maya AndersonMany species engage in torpor.
Mammals, birds, and certain marsupials go into torpor, which is a brief form of hibernation in which the organism lowers its body temperature and metabolic rate.
The California pocket mouse, kangaroo mouse, white-footed mouse, numerous species of hummingbirds, large brown bats, Richardson's ground squirrel, and fat-tailed Dunnarts (a marsupial) are a few more specific examples.
