The farting rate of the omnivorous bear varies directly with available food supply. When berries and plant nutrition are relied upon, that is when farting is most frequent and most pronounced. During salmon runs in fall, farting abates considerably, although moaning and bad temperament from glutting on fish can occur. Farting during hibernation does occur but is infrequent (except from upset stomach during pregnancy). For animals such as polar bears which are restricted almost entirely to a meat diet, farting happens very infrequently if at all. Also, because Polar Bears have very rare occasion or opportunity to be in the Woods, the logical conclusion is that we cannot ask about whether they fart there or not.
