Time to get "Betsy" back on the road - weather looks like its going to be excellent for the next while!!! Cleaned off the car cover and unwrapped her from her #hibernation - unfortunately, she needs to be jump started - dead battery lol... oh well, minor issue really!!! Incase you are wondering, she's a 1967 #Chevrolet #Impala - 100% stock. I'm the only the second owner, my father was the first.

Good morning! This very popular photo captured by Timothy C. Roth from Task Force Turtle portrays a snapping turtle that emerged after hibernation carrying the "earth" on its back

Alligators survive frozen lakes by slowing their metabolism and leaving their snouts out to continue breathing. This technique is called 'icing' and part of brumation which is similar to hibernation but with awareness.
