Family of Five Bears Is Discovered Hibernating Under California Home
Every year, bears go into hibernation during the cold, winter months, only emerging when spring rolls around. And while most bears make their den somewhere outdoors, others find a home closer to where humans live. Recently in Lake Tahoe, California, a family of bears was discovered hibernating underneath a resident's house. A mother black bear led her four cubs—one of which was an orphan that she adopted—into an empty crawl space underneath someone's home.
