RE: Hibernating bears' wounds heal without scars
Nice. I wonder if it's an ability specific to bears, or if human medical procedures would heal more quickly if a person's body were inactive, at rest througout. . .

-yet another reason to eliminate the bear threat in a massive preemptive strike. In light of this new intel on the enemy's tactical capabilities, I suggest we employ bunker busters at or near the beginning of spring.

RE: Hibernating bears' wounds heal without scars
Yeah I want to see the guy who crawled into a den of hibernating bears to get that information. Talk about your bad jobs.
