Here's Boris, my 6 year old male Russian. This was the 1st year he's stayed outside & hibernated on his

own & today he woke up & checked things out. Last summer I made a nice burrow for him, which he

expanded & hunkered down when it started getting colder so I left him alone. Later I mulched his pen

with leaves & covered the area I knew he was under with a tarp, anchored with rocks to keep him relatively

dry. It must've worked because 4 months later he seems fine.
