I've been looking up journal articles on black bears and hibernation for one of my classes. Many of the studies monitor chemical and hormonal levels in a bear's body during hibernation. Not the kind of job I want to do...I mean I doubt bears are that pleasant when you want to stick needles into them while they are trying to sleep. The best title, by far, has been "A technique for and risks associated with entering tree dens used by black bears." by Godfrey, et al. in the Wildlife Society Bulletin. I love that someone actually took the time to right down why going into a bear's den isn't the brightest idea in the world.
What have I gotten myself into?
