Apparently, polar bears do not actually hibernate. Only pregnant females take some kind of power nap during the winter. So you may want to change that answer.

Done thanks. Brown Bears and Polar Bears are pretty close in size anyway, and we already accepted both answers.

If polar bears hibernated, they would starve to death. They lose weight all summer waiting for winter to return so that they can hunt. Shorter winters are making for scrawnier polar bears, and perhaps their eventual extinction.

If Victoria's Secret's models are underweight... you can't even imagine how much I love "underweight"women!

Exactly. This woke culture is ruining everything. Nowadays Victoria's Secret is using fat and obese women to promote its products, which is clearly ridiculous.

I (Australia) haven't seen Mello Yello for at least 20 years, but I thought it was more like the local lemon squash brand Solo...coincidentally (?) Mountain Dew has become much more prominent here in the same 20 years

The Victoria's Secret Models are not underweight. There is a difference between slim & fit and underweight. Please stop this woke culture.
