The whole winter and part of spring.
An undisturbed bear stays asleep all winter long, sometimes without even changing position once they are settled in. The bear does not eat or drink, urinate or defecate the entire time. In severe northern climates, hibernation may last 7 months or longer, and the bear can maintain this deceptively shallow appearing state continuously the whole time.
