| Özet |
| Anatolian ground squirrels, Spermophilus xanthoprymnus (Bennett, 1835), are nearly endemic to Turkey. Various aspects of the biology of Anatolian ground squirrels have been studied. However, a detailed description of hibernation, with special attention to age and sex differences, has not previously been reported. Thus, in this study, we aimed to present a detailed description of hibernation in a population of free-living Anatolian ground squirrels, with special attention to age and sex differences, in relation to soil temperature (Tsoil) at the expected depth of the hibernacula. This study is the first such study for Old World ground squirrels (the genus Spermophilus sensu stricto) and incorporates an additional species from a different environment (e.g. warmer than those of others) into comparative studies of hibernation patterns in Holarctic ground squirrels (the tribe Marmotini) under natural conditions.
