Do turtles also need to hibernate in autumn?

The tortoise will hibernate in autumn. If the temperature in autumn is lower than 15 degrees Celsius, the tortoise will hibernate. Turtle hibernation has nothing to do with seasons, but has a lot to do with temperature. If the temperature is lower, it will hibernate. Turtles don't eat anything when they hibernate, but choose to go into deep sleep. In winter, if the temperature is high, they will wake up again.

First, the conditions for turtles to hibernate. Many people think that turtles only hibernate in winter, because most animals hibernate in winter, which is not the case. Many turtles hibernate in late autumn. We will find that it is getting colder and colder in autumn now. When the tortoise feels obviously cold, it will choose to go into hibernation to protect itself. Some small animals don't hibernate because they have hair, which can protect them and keep them warm. But turtles have no hair, so it will be very cold in winter, and it will be even colder if they need to live in water.

Second, the precautions for turtles to hibernate. When the tortoise hibernates, the owner also needs to keep the tortoise warm, otherwise the tortoise will die easily. Where the tortoise lives, the temperature should not be lower than 15 degrees Celsius, otherwise the tortoise will die easily. In addition, when the tortoise hibernates in winter, everyone can choose to replace the water in the tortoise tank with some soft soil, which will also make the tortoise feel warmer.

Third, summarize. Turtles may suddenly wake up during hibernation, so don't worry. Generally, when the tortoise feels that the surrounding environment is still cold, it will choose to continue hibernation. The tortoise is smart and cute. Bian Xiao himself thinks that if you want to keep pets, turtles are also a very good choice.
