No. It is still brutally cold in the range of the polar bear. Only the lower parts of the U.S and other countries are having a mild winter, northern climes are still very cold.
Polar bears do not truly hibernate and are active the year round, except for pregnant females.
polar bears eat, just like any other animal that hibernates.
because when the ice melts it reduces area for the polar bears to live and hunt in and it affects the hibernation cycle of the animal and this will effect the birth rate and there will be more sea life enemy coming closer to their habitat and becoming a direct threat to them but mainly their cubs.
For black bears and grizzly bears, from spring to fall, with heightened periods when bears come out of hibernation and when they're fattening up for hibernation. For polar bears, it can be any time of the year.
Yes, polar bears eat up alot of food to last a whole winter and when they go into hibernation, they digest the food slowly, making it last the winter. This is all while they are in hibernation, they eat alot of food before they go into hibernation.
'walking hibernation' means that the bears metabolism alters to a hibernation-like state which facilitates significant energy consercation. They remain active, but rely on stored fat for energy. This is a trait no other species of bear posesses.when the polar bear enters walking hibernation, their metabolism goes to a hibernation-like level. the polar bear remains active, but relys on stored body fat. the polar bear is the only bear that does this.
Polar bears live on the shore line until ice forms on the sea. Then they travel out to the edge of the ice to hunt for seals. (Except the pregnant females, who spend the winter in hibernation.)
polar bears live in the north pole because the north pole is cold and polar bears can trap warmth in their skin
Female polar bears appear to be very thin when they emerge from their dens after hibernation because they are severely undernourished. It is obvious from your emaciated appearance that you are undernourished.
polar bears are white because then they can camofladge in the snow
Polar bears have small ears because they are special.:)Polar bears have small ears because they are special.:)
Polar bears have a hump on their back because it is part of their characteristics.
Female polar bears dig a den in a snow drift, and have their baby's there.Polar bears have their babies in the den the mother made before winter. While hibernation, the mother sleeps with pregnancy till the babies come out and snuggle with their mom. Through hibernation the kids grow with the milk that they eat from their mother. After hibernation, the mother wakes up to find cubs in her den. And the life of the mother polar bear and her children continue.Cubs are born in the winter den.
