Sleeping Bear Curled Up in Its Den Coloring Page

A bear sleeps curled up in a rock den with its head on its paws. Bears do not truly hibernate in the way a ground squirrel does, they enter torpor, which means their heart rate falls but they can wake up if something disturbs them, and mothers give birth mid winter without properly waking. The cave arch is drawn as plain outlined rock rather than a dark interior, so the den can be coloured warm rather than black and the sheet stays restful instead of heavy.
