Dogs sleep more than us, but they wake more frequently than we do. How much and when they sleep depends on the level of activity in their environment. A dog living as a pet in the home is likely to sleep more than a dog that works for a living, like a search and rescue dog or a dog working on a farm.
In the colder winter months, some rattlesnake species enter a period of brumation, which is dormancy similar to hibernation. They often gather together for brumation in large numbers (sometimes over 1,000 snakes), huddling together inside underground rattlesnake dens or hibernacula.
A famous characteristic of Garden snake habitat is the âGarden gatheringâ in Manitoba. These Canadian snakes will travel as far as 30 kilometers to reach a secluded winter den in Manitoba. Thousands of snakes hibernate here, making it one of the largest Garden snake dens on the planet.
