Many species of ground squirrel like the flickertail hibernate in winter. They hibernation generally lasts for five to six months of the year. On the other hand tree squirrels are active throughout. ChaCha!

No, tree squirrels are active all year round. You may not see them as often in the winter, since they stay in their nests to conserve body heat. Call 1-800-2ChaCha unlimited Q's! Thanks, Jilianne!

Squirrels don't hibernate, but they are a bit less active in winter, staying in their nests to conserve heat a lot.

Ground squirrels hibernate for months at a time, but tree squirrels stay active during the winters and keep warm in groups.

No squirrels don't hibernate any place. That's why they will stash a bunch of food some place in a hollow tree. ChaCha on 24/7!

About Species
Species are able to reproduce, and is also the most specific major classification in biology. Living things that are very alike are still considered separate species if they cannot mate and produce fertile offspring.
