Aestivation is a behaviour of certain animals, typically in hot climates, involving a period of dormant behaviour to avoid the extremes of summer. It is a rather less common behaviour than the equivalent winter behaviour of hibernation.
Animals that aestivate include certain types of crocodile and lungfishes.
