Après une série consacrée aux races anciennes et une deuxième aux animaux de la basse-cour, l'excellent naturaliste et éleveur-documentariste Rémi Dupouy (co-auteur avec Yann Arthus-Bertrand de Vivant en 2022, entre-autres) est de retour pour 6 nouveaux épisodes dédiés à l'un de ses animaux fétiches : l'Ours brun. Originaire de Gascogne, Rémi connaît particulièrement bien cet "autre de l'Homme", aujourd'hui présent en France exclusivement dans les Pyrénées. Cette série est l'occasion pour lui de nous faire (re)découvrir cet animal qui fascine autant qu'il inquiète, et ce depuis des millénaires...Ce dernier épisode est l'occasion de faire un bilan sur les précieuses informations offertes par Rémi sur nos amis les ours, en particulier les Ours bruns, d'une manière un peu spéciale : débunker les idées fausses les plus courantes sur les ours. Vous (re)découvrirez par exemple : Que les Ours bruns ne sont pas essentiellement carnivores (contrairement à leur cousin polaire), mais omnivores avec un faible pour les végétaux.Qu'ils n'hibernent pas, mais qu'ils hivernent. Ils restent en partie actifs durant la saison froide, et donc ne dorment pas comme des marmottes.Ce ne sont pas de gros balourds pelucheux : leurs membres et leur museau sont longilignes, et ce sont de très habiles coureurs, grimpeurs et nageurs.Enfin, ce sont des animaux certes parfois dangereux et capables d'infliger des blessures mortelles aux humains ou à leur congénères, mais ils peuvent également faire preuve d'un grand calme, en particulier les mamans ours, qui témoignent d'une infinie tendresse et affection pour leurs oursons. En clair, les ours nous ressemblent énormément.Cet épisode est basé sur un article de 2019 de Jean-Phillipe Paul, rédacteur en chef pour La Salamandre, intitulé "9 idées reçues sur l'ours" (réservé aux abonné.e.s).___SOURCES :Vignette : Nounours, personnage emblématique de la série télévisée Bonne nuit les Petits, ici dans la version modernisée, Claude Laydu, 1994-1997 (©France 2).Extraits :00'57 : "heartbeat" (Pixabay)03'05 : Danse de l'ours de la ville de Comănești, Roumanie.

Preview for Later Today: Jeremy Zakis reports that warm weather has disrupted snake hibernation, keeping venomous brown and red-belly black snakes active in suburban areas. Simultaneously, a massive mouse plague continues to ravage Western and South Australia, as populations resist baits and move into new territories, including southern Sydney.

As we leave the very busy and spiritually powerful Easter Season and enter into Ordinary Time, it is vital that we remember that the Easter Mysteries are supposed to empower us for the days ahead, not tire us and convince us we need a rest. We must avoid the temptation to hibernate in our faith and wait until the next big season of the Church.

Welcome to episode 17, in which we are supposed to discuss hibernation, torpor, brumation, viking funerals, Russ' kinship with a bean-bag chair, insulting lemur names, the turtle that ran away, and SO MUCH MORE! Listen to us mispronouce "brumation" as "brumination" for the entire episode! "I'm all for Viking funerals!!" "If I were at your funeral, I would 100% shoot a flaming arrow into your raft!" "If I were to go to your funeral, I would hire a 20-year-old stripper to throw himself onto your casket... then dip." "It's like I'm a beanbag chair hitting the floor" "If you get dementia, I wanna visit you every day in the home for your sick-ass rap content!" "I can't think of anything that rhymes with Russ." "Can I put my cats on sleep mode... for just, like, a week?" "They use the word arousal a lot, but it was in terms of them rising..." "...from their treehole?" "I'll tell you what's wrong with you: F*CKING NOTHING!" On the visit from Russ's parents: "Did they bring chocolate?" "They brought something better.. a pew from a church! It's Snuffy's favourite seat now... until I drive some more farts into it." "What the f*ck were we talking about?"

Many companies today are choosing silence over visibility when it comes to their social and environmental commitments. What might appear as retreat or inconsistency is, in fact, something more deliberate. Christopher Marquis describes this phenomenon as “strategic hibernation,” or a calculated pause in external communication driven by political tension, stakeholder scrutiny, and shifting expectations. Rather than abandoning purpose, companies are pulling back publicly while continuing the work internally, protecting their capabilities, talent, and long-term investments. But this creates a critical tension: how to navigate risk without eroding trust or losing momentum on the very issues that define a company's impact and identity.We invited Christopher Marquis, Author and Sinyi Professor of Chinese Management at the University of Cambridge, to unpack this moment and what it means for purpose-driven leaders. Christopher explores why strategic hibernation is not the same as “green hushing,” and outlines how organizations can remain disciplined in communications while actively maintaining their core assets and preparing for when conditions shift. He shares insights on how companies can continue investing in sustainability and social impact behind the scenes, why internal alignment and values-based leadership matter more than ever, and how leaders can thoughtfully assess political risk without compromising their long-term mission.Listen for insights on:Maintaining employee trust during uncertaintyProtecting culture as a strategic assetWhen to re-engage publicly on issuesGlobal perspectives on corporate silenceResources + Links:Christopher Marquis' LinkedInHarvard Business Review: Is This a Moment for Strategic Hibernation?Christopher Marquis' Website (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (00:13) - Meet Chris Marquis (01:59) - Chris' Background (02:52) - Why This Work (04:46) - Strategic Hibernation (09:14) - Three Ways (11:43) - Regional Differences?

Australia is experiencing an unprecedented snake invasion as the El Niño cycle upends traditional hibernation patterns, driving snakes from bushlands into urban coastal areas seeking the heat retained by concrete and steel structures. Some suburbs report up to 300 calls weekly for snake removals, as species like Eastern Browns and Coastal Taipans pursue urban food sources. Zakis notes that experts predict this southward migration will continue over the next 25 years, meaning snakes may remain a year-round threat. (2)1934 SYDNEY

In this second conversation with independent researcher and author Jeff T. Bowles, we explore his controversial and thought-provoking theory about The Winter Gene and the idea that humans may be biologically programmed to enter a form of “hibernation mode.” Jeff suggests that ancient survival pathways - designed to help humans survive winter, famine, and limited sunlight - may still exist in modern biology. According to this theory, many modern health conditions could be linked to these dormant survival programs being unintentionally activated. This wide-ranging conversation explores evolutionary biology, metabolism, vitamins, and some very unconventional ideas about disease and seasonal physiology. Topics discussed include: • What The Winter Gene theory is • Why Jeff believes humans may be stuck in a form of hibernation mode • The concept of “Caveman Diseases” and “Cavewoman Diseases” • The idea of biological “antifreeze programs” in human metabolism • The history of the 1920s supplement boom • The role of Vitamin D in calcium metabolism and calcification • Why nutrients like Magnesium and Vitamin K2 may act as cofactors for vitamin D • Debates surrounding blood testing and modern nutrition science • Jeff's unusual perspectives on seasonal biology, including discussions around mania, extreme survival behaviors, and historical references to cannibalism • Controversial ideas about cancer and winter biology This was a fascinating and sometimes surprising conversation that challenges many commonly held ideas about health and disease. Whether you agree with Jeff's theories or not, discussions like this encourage curiosity, critical thinking, and deeper exploration into human metabolism and evolutionary biology.

As winter settles over the northern hemisphere of our planet, many kinds of creatures are moving toward hibernation. True hibernation is much more than just a deep, prolonged sleep. In fact, many animals that are popularly believed to hibernate, like bears, are not true hibernators. A wintering bear's body temperature seldom falls below 86 degrees, so bears are easily awakened. True hibernators actually need several hours to awaken.The ground squirrel is a true hibernator. Its hibernation pattern is triggered by an internal clock that causes hormone changes. These changes not only lower the squirrel's temperature, metabolic breathing and heart rate, but also changes the way its nervous system and cell membranes operate. If the squirrel's nervous system and cell membrane operation were not modified for hibernation, the other changes would kill it.Once the squirrel is in true hibernation, its body temperature drops to about 35 F, its heart rate drops from 350 beats per minute to about 3 beats per minute, and it will breathe only once every several minutes.The vast and complex internal changes that must take place in hibernation, affecting the function of every cell, show us that hibernation is an ability that was built into many creatures. If all these changes were due to genetic accidents, there would be no hibernating animals today. They would all have died trying to find the right combination of internal changes to allow hibernation to occur.Psalm 121:2-4"My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep."Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I see Your love for all that You have made in the ways that You have provided for good of all Your creatures. If You would be their Father through such tender loving care, how much more would You be my Father for the sake of Your Son Jesus Christ! Amen.REF.: Fleming, Carol B. How do animals hibernate?

Animals can hibernate, slowing down most metabolic functions — heart rate, blood flow, brain activity, and body temperature — then waking as if nothing happened. Humans have never done this, but what if they could? Could hibernation extend life or even save it?  Dr. Sanjay Gupta explores global research into the molecular mechanics of hibernation and how these abilities might one day help fight cancer, prevent heart disease, treat depression, and even enable travel to Mars.

We covered a lot of ground in this conversation, which is another way of saying we wandered bravely from topic to topic with the confidence of people who believe curiosity is a form of planning. It started with musical dreams, which immediately ran into taxes, because nothing crushes artistic ambition faster than discovering the government would also like a solo. From there we examined the mysterious phenomenon of celebrity wealth, which turns out to be mostly an illusion created by sunglasses, confidence, and someone else paying for lunch. Naturally this led us to government conspiracies, because once you realize famous people don’t have as much money as you think, it’s only a short hop to assuming someone is hiding something. We discussed survival skills for the collapse of society, a scenario everyone is very confident about despite having trouble assembling IKEA furniture. The Doomsday Clock came up, which is reassuring because it’s good to know the end of the world is being managed by people who own a clock. We also talked about zombies, because every serious discussion eventually circles back to zombies, the one apocalypse we’ve fully rehearsed thanks to television. Along the way we touched on personal health journeys, which mostly involve learning what foods now hate us, and food preferences, which are deeply emotional and should never be questioned. Black pepper emerged as a cultural force, gold mining as an economic mystery, and hibernation as an underutilized lifestyle choice for anyone tired of the news. In the end, the conversation proved that modern life is complicated, confusing, and possibly ending soon, but at least we can laugh about it while seasoning our food aggressively and considering a long nap.

In this introspective episode of the Secret Life Podcast, host Brianne Davis-Gantt dives deep into the often-overlooked topic of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and the emotional toll winter can take on individuals. Drawing from her own experiences and those of her clients, Brianne explores the concept of winter as a time for recovery and restoration, urging listeners to reframe their perspective on the colder months.Throughout the episode, Brianne emphasizes the importance of hibernation—not just for bears, but for us as well. She shares insights on how embracing this dormancy can lead to personal growth and renewal, just as nature prepares for the spring. Listeners are encouraged to lean into the coziness of winter, allowing themselves to rest, reset, and recharge without judgment.Brianne also offers practical tips for managing the symptoms of winter depression, such as getting outside for fresh air, utilizing light therapy, and focusing on a healthy diet rich in vitamin D. She highlights the necessity of connecting with nature, even suggesting the playful act of hugging a tree to foster a sense of grounding and connection to the earth.This episode serves as a compassionate reminder that winter is not just a season of gloom, but a vital period for self-care and rejuvenation. Join Brianne as she guides you through this enlightening conversation, offering hope and encouragement for navigating the challenges of seasonal depression.

What is Cozymaxxing? Cozymaxxing, to me, is about intentional softness and what happens after the peak. We're currently in the waning moon (January 15, 2026). As the moonlight gets less and less, right now, it's almost like life is taking a big exhale. Use this time of the year to "cozymaxx" for yourself.  Online, cozymaxxing often looks like candles, blankets, staying in, and yummy soups. It's also a great time to ask ourselves, what can be softened? What can be released? What do we not need to hold so tightly to? Winter is the perfect time to nest within yourself. Nature shows us the way—bears hibernate and turn their heat inward, focusing their growing force inward to germinate the seeds. During January, take time to slow down, ado some nervous system repair, and work on your emotional and physical digestion. Cozy as a form of release Being comfortable and cozy doesn't mean just dealing with what's there—it means releasing what doesn't add to comfortability. Cozymaxxing becomes powerful when I compare it with release, so it doesn't feel like an accumulation of sensory experiences. I want my cozymaxxing to also have a release, so it's about output. Remember, input without output leads to stagnation. So, think about what needs to go. Cozymaxxing as nervous system care You're probably a little overstimulated—I know I am. When it comes to regulating my nervous system, to me, cozymaxxing involves trusting my body to know what it needs, so I don't have to do a 'system override' of what I'm feeling, where, in my body.  Practical cozymaxxing practices Choose one small space in your home to soften (in your home or workplace). That means making the place very soft and comfy, somewhere you find yourself coming back to and wanting to come back to. I often soften my nightstand, display my teas proudly with a little tea making station, etc. soften your environment. To soften mine, I'll often rearrange the crystal dish, cleaning the nightstand, and refreshing the artifacts in my home. Take specific blankets and throw pillows and designate a corner of your couch for them. Remember: the power of cozymaxxing is preparation. f you're thinking of cozymaxxing through the ens of the moon cycles the waning moon isn't the end—it's preparation for the new/ rest supports growth, it doesn't delay it. We are all seeds! Hibernation and cozymaxxing is about turning inward. Seeds don't sprout in chaos! They sprout in stillness, warmth and darkness. And that's what the winter offers—time for the seeds of your life to sprout. Cozymaxxing is how we tend to the soil of our routines.  If you're new to the show, leave a review of Bri Books on Apple Podcasts, and listen to Bri Books on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Please tell me where you're traveling to by using #bribooks on Instagram and subscribe to the Bri Books newsletter at bribookspod.com/newsletter.  

Winter asks something very different of us than the rest of the year.In this episode, Herbs for Hibernation (Not Hustle): Reframing the New Year, I invite you to step away from the pressure to optimize, fix, or reinvent yourself—and instead explore winter as a season of maintenance, nourishment, and sacred smallness.

When winter arrives, many animals enter a deep sleep called hibernation to survive the cold. During hibernation, their heartbeat and breathing slow down, and they use very little energy. Bears, bats, and groundhogs are famous hibernators, but even some frogs and snakes do it too! Before winter, they eat lots of food to build fat that keeps them warm. Learn how animals prepare for hibernation, what happens to their bodies while they rest, and why this amazing survival skill helps them live through freezing months.
