I hibernate for about 5 to 8 months.
During that time, I take resting very seriously. My heart rate and temperature both drop, and I stop excreting waste. I pretty much completely shut down. While I sleep, check out these weird facts about jellyfish.
I’m kind of a lone wolf … er, bear.
Once we’re done traveling with our own moms as cubs, it is very rare to see a
group of us together. However, certain streams serve as gathering
spots for groups of us brown bears to hunt for salmon. (Mmm…salmon.)
