Bears shall wake soon


 The bear will soon awake from its hibernation. This is what happens over the winter months, as bears enter a long period of sleep so that their bodies can rest. During hibernation, bears don't need to eat or pass water. It helps them otherwise they would build up muscle atrophy. Their body keeps hydrated and they store a lot of fat, which also helps them during hibernation. Bears can hibernate each winter except the polar bear, which is adapted to live in cold snowy temperatures all year round. During hibernation, bears are not always in dreamland, they can be awake now and then, but they remain in their snug dens. Bears have taught humans a lot about diabetes. While it's a problem for humans, bears can find it healthy to be diabetic. This means they need a lot of sugar. What they eat can be up to 50kg. By becoming overweight and full of calories, this helps their bodies to experience a hibernation rest, so that they never get hungry or thirsty. By the time spring arrives and bears wake up, they've lost weight! 


The story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears is fairy tale about a girl that seems lost in the woods, and discovers a cottage that belongs to three bears, who happen to have gone out but she knocks on the door, goes inside when there isn't an answer. She finds food in three bowls. The first bowl of porridge is far too hot. The second is too cold. The smaller is just right and she consumed all of it. Then she finds three chairs of different sizes. The largest is too high, the middle is too hard, and the smallest is fine until it breaks and she falls. She goes upstairs and finds three beds. The largest and middle sized beds are both uncomfortable so she likes the comfort of the small bed and goes to sleep on it. When the three bears return home, they discover an intruder had eaten their porridge, sat in their chairs and asleep in their beds. Goldilocks is woken up, looked at the three bears, ran away and that was the end of this story.  


Goldilocks is a thief but she isn't what she appears to be. She was really a fox! That was how she used to be, in a much earlier version of the tale called "Scrapefoot". She later turned into a human but kept her sneaky traits, knowing full well that what she was doing was wrong and could get her into trouble or killed but went ahead anyway. The biggest father bear was scary. While the three bears are dangerous, they were robbed by a magical golden haired fox/girl. It must be worth mentioning here that bears are thieves just like Goldilocks in the story. Bears steal honey from bee hives and then they get attacked by swarms of bees!
