Abstract Background Golden-mantled ground squirrels S. lateralis are anorexic during the winter and survive by exploiting hibernation to reduce energetic demands. The liver normally plays a critical role in fueling and regulating metabolism and one might expect significant changes in hepatobiliary function with hibernation. We analyzed bile collected from animals in summer animals in winter that were either torpid active between bouts of torpor or which failed to enter hibernation in order to characterize the effects of hibernation on hepatobiliary function per se. Results Surprisingly hibernator bile did not differ from summer squirrel bile in key characteristics including bile acids cholesterol free fatty acids lecithin and osmolality. One major distinction between summer and winter squirrels was that winter squirrels experience 5 fold increases in bilirubin . Such an increase may have significant physiological consequences that could aid in survivorship of torpor. Animals that failed to hibernate despite being anorexic were very similar to .
