Hibernaculum is my topic.

Outline

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Introduction: • Introduce what hibernacula are and why they are used

• Explain that they differ between animals in appearance but have the same general purpose

• Intro information will come from the articles listed in the bibliography, but we will generalize it here rather than reporting specific data

Insects: • We will explain that insects are exothermic and freezing can mean death

• Insects may go through diapause; a type of hibernation, or overwintering which would both occur in hibernacula^[1]

• Hibernacula are used to protect themselves from the weather ^[2]

• Logs, caves, under rocks or could use repurposed objects such as hornet nest ^[3]

Reptiles: • General introduction of hibernacula in reptiles (needed for hibernation)

• Reptiles are exothermic

• We will add subsections for Lizards^[4], Snapping Turtles^[5], and Pine Snakes^[6], explaining how hibernacula differ

Amphibians: Amphibians: • Hibernacula uses for amphibians, including overwintering^[7]

• Interesting case of newts using artificial hibernacula for habitat enhancement^[8] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samanaqeeb (talk • contribs) 06:51, 24 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Mammals: • Explain particular challenges mammals, as endotherms, face in hibernating (info will be drawn from sources listed below; presented in a more general context)

• Briefly describe some of the types of mammals that use hibernacula and the general characteristics of their hibernacula to give an appreciation for the great variety -- marsupial mountain pygmy-possums^[9] ground squirrels^[10], and mouse lemurs^[11]

• Elaborate on bears -- how selection can vary between sites and species^[12]^[13]^[14]

• Elaborate on bats -- behaviors connected to hibernacula^[15]and factors that influence how long they stay in hibernacula^[16] CAS307 (talk) 04:38, 24 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
