Moreover, ground squirrels have to awaken about every week for about a day, eat stored food, pass waste, and then return to hibernation. They continue this cycle all winter. Bears donât do this. Bears can go for more than 100 days without eating, drinking, or passing waste. Amazing! Another difference: True hibernators like ground squirrels awaken slowly. However, bears can awaken very easily during their denning period. (Note to self when hiking during the winter!)
