how are the ends closed up?

Drawstring channel on each end, including cordlocks. The drawstring is long enough to tie to the hammock suspension. And of course velcro along the the length at the top.

so it velcros closed not zippers?

Correct. That allows it to be easily vented at will anywhere along it's length.

also i think there would be a lot of accidental unzipping as someone tossed and turned.

I would be more concerned with stressing a zipper and getting stuck inside it. The velcro, while noisy, is the best solution for the closure of a Pod.

~ I absolutely love using my PeaPod in cold weather.
