[00:00:00]Brown bears don't actually hibernate. I know that's on every school worksheet, but it's wrong. True hibernation means unconscious, frozen, done. [music] Bears don't do that. They enter something called torpor. Heart rate dropping to around eight beats per minute, body temperature barely falling, brain still quietly running. And here's where it gets genuinely wild.

[00:00:26]>> [music] >> Female brown bears give birth mid-winter inside that state. Unconscious [music] enough to survive months without food, conscious enough to nurse cubs they'll barely remember delivering.

[00:00:37]>> [music] >> They wake up in spring with babies they had while basically asleep. So, tell me, terrifying, brilliant, or both?
