By hibernating, they can get through the cold and snowy months when they can’t find the food they eat. Bears need to eat a lot of food before hibernation. They eat so much that they may put on about 18 kilos of fat in a week. During the winter, bears will live off the fat in their bodies. Bears are able to do this because their bodies use much less energy during hibernation with their heartbeats and breathing slowing down. The bear spends lots of time finding a wonderful place to hibernate and making a fortable bed itself. It may start to hibernate in early October and might not wake up until April or May, when the weather is warm again. When the bear wakes up, it will be very hungry.
