The wrinkle-faced bat does not hibernate. One reason for this is that it lives throughout South America, where the climate does not get cold enough to make hibernation necessary.

Bats hibernate for varying lengths of time depending on the species, typically ranging from a few weeks to several months. Some bats may only hibernate for a few weeks, while others may hibernate throughout the entire winter season.

Bats can hibernate for up to 6 months.

Many bats migrate, while others pass into torpor (a state of temporary hibernation) in cold weather but rouse themselves and feed when warm spells permit insect activity, and still others retreat to caves for winter and hibernate for six months.
