Think bears hibernate? 🐻 Think again!
Share this with your bear loving friends and follow along for more nature myths busted and wildlife wonders uncovered! 🌟
Bears actually enter torpor, not true hibernation. While hibernators like chipmunks and woodchucks chill to near-freezing, bears just cool down a bit to conserve energy and can wake up more easily if food or danger comes knocking. 🐾❄️
Fun fact: It takes a ton of energy to reheat a hibernating body, so bigger animals like raccoons and skunks also opt for torpor. Next time someone says bears hibernate, you can drop some serious nature knowledge! 🌿📚
Need a little torpor time yourself? 😴

If anyone needs me, I’ll be bed rotting all weekend trying to book Oasis tickets and plucking up the courage to deal with the school traffic queues and parking for Monday!

Comment if you relate!
When you finally catch a ray of sunshine ☀️ during a gloomy Canadian winter ❄️ and start dreaming about the spring ahead 🌸🌷!
Well now you know… guilty 🙋🏽♀️ *side note I am tired, my back hurts, I’m asthmatic and the kids think I’m “wellll old!” 😂 #fridaynight
Anyone else? To be honest, I just can’t be bothered. I’d rather be at home, wrapped up in blankets, sipping tea, reading books or watching a film, bath, PJs, and bed by 9:00pm. 🫖📚🛁
This is pure bliss….Anyone else? sound aboutright?

It’s a real indoor cat/don’t leave home kind of vibe over here… just being a happy little hermit! ♥️
Ps - if you comment “pajamas,” I will I’ll send you a link to these. The green stripes are my fav of course but I love that they can go in the wash!
Follow me @graceatwood for all things books, beauty, everyday outfits and general coziness.

On an unrelated/related note: The funny thing about seeing yourself messy without makeup is that the more times you see it the less you judge yourself for not looking perfect on camera/instagram; the more you have confidence in your personality and who you are; and the less you care about your appearance.

As the days get shorter, wild bears start heading to their dens for winter 🐻

This Alaskan brown bear is strolling through Hallo Bay, a favourite eating spot for these grizzly giants.
Bears are attracted to the tidal flats of the bay for the clams, salmon and sedges (a type of wild grass).
Hallo Bay is located within Katmai National Park which is the 4th largest national park in the USA.
