: What you have been hearing is misinformation. There is no documented evidence that it is necessary to hibernate a tortoise. If you are not interested in breeding your tortoise you really don't need to hibernate it. It is not and easy task that does not seem to be necessary.

I would disagree with this view. If, naturally, a russian will hibernate, why wouldn't you hibernate him? Unless of course, he's sick or just purchased as WC.
