What is the bite force of a bear in psi?

It's depending in which bear do you referring grizzly bear (a sub specie of the Brown bear) can exert a bite force of over 1,200 psi (over 540 kilograms) polar Bear can exert a bite force of over 440 psi (over 200 kg of force i give you this Result from the national geographic wild channel from the bio mechanical program Called ''i,predator'')

In my opinion polar bear can bite down with much stronger force like the grizzly or Slight harder because the polar bear(polar bears are larger in size in compression To the Grizzlies and have much stronger and thicker jaws compare to the grizzles And That's includes their sharper,longer canines) can bite through the skull of it's Prey which if some animal can do that she needs a lot of force to do so (like the Jaguar That can bite down with a force between 1,800 psi - 2,000 psi).

I,predator perhaps do an assumption to the polar bears bite force because they Couldn't (probably) measured the biteforce,they said the polar bears have one of The strongest and most deadliest jaws on the planet.

What does a bear do after hibbernation?

the bears fur keeps it warm so that way it can't go out and look for prey
bear makes itself a den where it can stay warm, then enters a deep sleep. Bears do not technically "hibernate" such as other animals like the marmot; bears can wake up and have been documented going outside and walking around occasionally in the winter.

Pregnant females will give birth to usually two cubs while in their winter den.

---

True hibernation such as in rodents is defined by drastic changes in body temperature, dropping to just a few degrees above ambient temperature (the temperature in their den), slowed heart rate and respiration. Rodents are in a deep torper that takes some time to wake from, but they do periodically wake up to eat stored food, urinate and defecate.

Bears on the other hand, only drop their body temperature a few degrees, although their heart and breathing do drop. They are able to wake up faster if they are disturbed, but do not eat or drink all winter, they are able to process urea into water.

Technically, as the other anwerer said, bears do not hibernate, but there isn't a good term for what they do. Some use 'winter lethergy' or winter torpor' or some other phrase to distinguish it, but hibernation is commonly used by the public.

Some say that this adaptation makes them more efficient hibernators, and they should be 'true hibernators' while rodents are reclassified, but in science, often tradition takes precedence, and details of rodent hibernation was studies before the differences between them and bears were known.
