Electroencephalogram (EEG), brain and abdominal temperature, and motor activity were recorded for the first time in 18 adult males of facultative hibernator, the Mongolian hamster, during hibernation under controlled laboratory conditions in winter. At room temperature, clear synchronous circadian rhythms of motor activity and body temperature were observed. In most animals, a gradual decrease in external temperature (from 24°C to 4°C) led to a significant increase in motor activity, combined with an increase in the amplitude of circadian oscillations of body temperature. Six hamsters demonstrated torpor bouts and hibernation with radical changes in the EEG up to reaching the isoelectric line, as well as the disappearance of oscillations of brain temperature. It has been found that Mongolian hamsters can easily enter and exit both a state of torpor and a fairly deep hibernation with a decrease in body temperature down to 10ºC during normal sleep periods.

2. Fig. 1. Averaged 10-day fragment of a two-month record of body temperature (upper curve, left ordinate, °C) and motor activity (lower curve, right ordinate, δG) in two hamsters that did not enter a hypothermic state when the chamber temperature was reduced from 24°C (in this fragment – ​​from 13°C) to 4°C. Accordingly, the light period was reduced from 12 h (in this fragment – ​​from 5 h) to 2 h per day. The abscissa axis shows the time of day in h. The dotted line indicates the trend line; r=0.62 is the correlation coefficient between the two curves (p < 0.05).

3. Fig. 2. Typical cold hibernation in a male Mongolian hamster in the laboratory for two months in winter. At the top is body temperature (°C, left ordinate), at the bottom is motor activity (δG, right ordinate). The temperature in the experimental chamber was lowered from 24°C (13.01, beginning of the experiment) to 4°C (4.02) and maintained at this level until the end of the experiment. The photoperiod was also reduced from 12 h (13.01) to 2 h (4.02). The frame with a darkening highlights the fragment shown in detail in Fig. 5.
