/ Restless Bears
Normally, bears sleep through the winter because it’s hard to find food in freezing weather. Before their winter sleep, bears have to put on extra body weight, up to 180 kg, so they spend the autumn months eating as much food as they can find. However, the bears’ behavior changed because of global warming.
"Restless bears are roaming the forests of southwestern Siberia, scaring local people", reported Tatiana Maslova, chief expert at an ecological agency. The same thing is happening in many other parts of the world. In the mountains of northern Spain, for example, more than 130 bears remained active throughout last winter.
Bears usually hide under the snow, but in dry places. The rainy weather during the last winters made it difficult to find a suitable "bedroom". Also, because of the warmer weather, bears can now find food in winter too. Scientists say that staying awake in winter will not cause the bears any problems.
Bear biologist, Mike Gappa, says that people have to act against wandering, restless bears who might become unexpected guests near their homes.
