Abstract

Hibernation is a very common behavior in the animal. It can help animals save a lot of energy during the cold winter when there is little food. The intestinal microorganisms of hibernating animals are significantly different between hibernating and non-hibernating periods. In order to provide reference for future research on intestinal microorganism of hibernating animals. This paper summarizes the significant differences of intestinal microorganism and its metabolites in hibernating animals during hibernation and non-hibernation. In addition, the relationship between intestinal microorganism changes and intestinal immune system changes in hibernating animals is summarized.
