15C is 59*F, so it was not a temperature problem. Did the animals have food in their stomachs when they went into hibernation? There is something that went wrong, this usually happens when they are kept too warm.

yea food being in the stomach couldve rotted inside of them which would cause death, other than that and temperature i honestly dont know without more details, bobby is deff the one to answer that though
