It\u2019s me, Beatrice Bear. I\u2019ve been looking for the perfect hibernation location, and I think I\u2019ve found one! A hollow under the roots of a giant tree looks really nice. I know what you\u2019re thinking: don\u2019t bears hibernate in caves? Some bears do, but most bears dig their dens into hillsides or find nice cozy hollows like mine.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/EN\/CA\/wp-content\/uploads\/black-bear-female.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54838\" width=\"419\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.earthrangers.com\/EN\/CA\/wp-content\/uploads\/black-bear-female.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.earthrangers.com\/EN\/CA\/wp-content\/uploads\/black-bear-female-442x420.jpg 442w, https:\/\/www.earthrangers.com\/EN\/CA\/wp-content\/uploads\/black-bear-female-300x285.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 419px) 100vw, 419px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s only ONE problem: there\u2019s a hole in the side and the cold air is downright chilly.

What happens when you get a drafty breeze in <em>your <\/em>home? Unlike bears, lots of humans heat their homes with electricity. When there\u2019s a crack around a window or door frame, the warm air escapes, and the cold air comes blowing in. That\u2019s a waste of energy. Wasting energy is definitely NOT eco-friendly, so it\u2019s important to stop that draft!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out if you have a draft in your house, just run your hands around your windows and doors. If you feel cold air, tell an adult.
