Hi there! Let me tell you about marmots and what they do in winter.

Marmots are animals that live in cold places, and when winter comes, it gets very cold and hard to find food. So, marmots find a cozy burrow, which is like a little underground house, and they go to sleep there for the whole winter. This long sleep is called hibernation.

While they are sleeping, their bodies slow down a lot. They don’t move much and don’t need to eat. This helps them save energy during the cold months when food is hard to get. When spring comes and it gets warm again, marmots wake up, come out of their burrows, and start looking for food.

So, marmots sleep in their burrows in winter to stay safe, warm, and healthy until spring arrives!
