Nature
Deliberate but unproductive excessive sleep after a period of sleep deprivation, for example sleeping most of the weekend after chronic lack of sleep during the working week.

Sleep cannot be accumulated or stored. A sleep debt cannot be paid off. There is no body capability for this. Humans are the only animals who intentionally deprive themselves of sleep.
