Animals hibernate to avoid a certain death due to seasonal changes which make their environment inhospitable due to temperatures, like extreme cold and/or other weather conditions, like no rain for many months. One of the most notable species that hibernates are bears. Bears and other animals go in search of food supplies during the end of summer and fall seasons in order to amass as much fatty tissue as possible. These fat stores will be their main energy source while hibernating. As winter is incredible harsh, bears and other animals find areas for prolonged shelter, like a cave or sturdy nest. When they wake up in the spring, bears and other animals are extremely hungry due to the use of their fat stores to maintain basic functions like heart rate and respiration, and having not eating for literally months.

What would happen if all the major mountain ranges, particularly in the north hemisphere were gone? The Rockies, Himalayas, the
mylen [45]

Answer:

These big and hefty mountain ranges are play important role in weather and wind patterns in their related geographical region. Mountain ranges such as Himalayas, Rockies and Alps affects the weather and movement of wind on global level as well.

In absence of these mountains the global pattern of the wind can be affected and cause drastic change in global climate change as they play crucial role as barrier to wind and jet streams by diverting or dividing it.

For instance Himalayas, during the northern winters diverts the wind and acts as barrier for wind which prevents it from freezing. Rockies and Andies blocks the moisture laden winds flow from Pacific Ocean to western flanks of the american continent that leads to a dry region called rain Shadow desert zone.

Hence if these mountain ranges are gone these impacts will not be felt. Similarly Himalayas in India, cause monsoon wind to strike and cause rain in the region. So winds are greatly affected by these Mountains. If these mountain ranges were gone, winds will flow undisturbed as there would be no barrier to global wind patterns.
