Best Answer

Cholesterol is found in both warm and cold blooded animals. If you're talking about membranes, cholesterol is used to maintain the fluidity of the cell membrane. In cold blooded animals the change in temperature in the seasons causes the animal to store more cholesterol in the membrane causing it to be more fluid during colder seasons which prevent it from literally turning to ice hard and break.
