This is the story of 5 Christmas bears. Most bears hibernate during the cold winter months. A true hibernation is when the body temperature drops to almost freezing. Bears do not have a true hibernation however. Their body temperature only drops about 5 degrees. The Christmas bears hibernate beginning in January and do not come out of hibernation until after Thanksgiving.
Now that it is December 1st, Mr. and Mrs. Bear come out of their hibernation first. They are upstairs in the house and look around to see what all is going on. It takes them awhile to get moving since they have been sleeping for 11 months!!! They represent the polar bear branch of the bear family. Stayed tuned for more adventures of the 5 Christmas Bears.
We'll be watching the bears story. It looks like the blog got fixed but I'll still come over and help if you need it.
