During hibernation, a bear's body temperature drops to about 88 degrees, 12 degrees less than a normal summer body temperature. During hibernation, bears, do not exercise, urinate, defecate, eat, or drink. The pulse is about 8 beats per minute as opposed to 40-50 beats per minute during non-hibernation time.
