Hibernate

Real World Example

Imagine having a tight budget at the end of the month when your funds are low, and payday is still a week away. In this situation, you might cut back on unnecessary expenses, only using what is essential, much like animals do when they hibernate. Just as you conserve your resources until your next paycheck, animals conserve their energy and survive on stored fat during the winter when food is scarce, effectively "budgeting" their energy until spring arrives.
