well, you can ask after the fact shrug

Actually, someone did kind of ask. That someone was Clumsy himself – he provided both the question and an elaboration on the answer.

Urine-analysist

And next he will explain the birds cloaca

Cliff Clavin’s long lost ancestor

Do they pills for that? A whole night?

And now you know.

The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology notes, “hibernating bears have elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels, but their arteries do not become clogged.” And a loved one is taking prescription medicine derived from black bear bile to control gall stones.

So are these the bear facts? And nothing but the facts?

Doing his best to bore the bear and make sure it sleeps until Summer.

First time I’ve wanted to be a bear…

Yes, But does a bear still make poopie in the woods?

What, exactly, am I supposed to do with this information?

Sometimes, you just have to take the p!$$…

Why do I hear Sheldon Cooper’s voice while Clumsy talks.

It’s like a solution in search of a problem that doesn’t exist.

No comment from Gent?

Well, I was kind of wondering why the energy in urea was being wasted, by dumping it out in pee.

Now I know it isn’t always, by all mammals.

Do bears do this the rest of the year, at least to a limited extent?

Suitable candidate for RBION…

I was wondering…

Interesting. Now I have to look that up.

Okay. Now I have to look that up. Drat this new fact checking society. Why couldn’t we stick to plain ol’ “no laws of physics” Bugs Bunny and the lot?

Lots of that going around

Why cant the babies and the elderly do that at night?

Ah, it’s a good thing I just finished breakfast.

I’m not sure I needed to know that.

The more you know….☺️

TMI

I suppose that could work for a male hibernating bear who can sleep with his dingdong in his mouth, but how would a female bear be able to swallow her urine? Her mouth wouldn’t be able to reach herself before it spills on the ground..

Learn something new everyday. . .beats the cr*p out of harry and meaghan and the kardashians and whoever else is the attention seeker of the day.

Wish more knowledge like that was given to me in school days!!!!

I really did not want to know!

Don’t mess with a hibernating bear. Yip yip yip yip yip

The origin of mansplaining.

No prostate problems then. No getting up in the middle of winter to pee either.

Ask the bear when it wakes up.

I found it fascinating — if true.

But he still needs to go in the woods.

I can’t even make it through the one night without a bathroom run (literally) or two. It would be nice if humans could recycle urine at night.

Now if you can only train astronauts to do that…

I woulda thought fertilizer for our house plants … after gluing on a little nitrogen.

Interesting and yet, for me, T.M.I.

Now I know why bears are so cranky when they wake up – kidney stones

Believe it or not.

Probably reclaims water, too.

Bears don’t actually hibernate.

i recycle my urine too

The way you’re probably imagining it happening, is not how it happens.

Urea is not urine. It is in urine. Not the same.
