Hibernation
Many animals, including hedgehogs,
spend winter in a sleeplike state
called hibernation. They hide among
tree roots, piles of rocks, or fallen
leaves and stay there until spring.
Fall
Winter
Hibernating hedgehog
Falling snow
Many of the trees have lost their
leaves and their branches are
bare. The weather is cold, and
there may be frost and snow.
Animals have to search hard
to find food.
Blooming flowers
Forest-floor flowers, such as
bluebells, burst through the soil,
Spring capturing the sunlight before the
trees grow leaves and block it out.
Summer
Animals begin to search for food
after winter, and have young as
the weather becomes warmer.
