Animals in the spring. Part 1

What he does when he wakes up? Bears belong to predators. But in essence it is a truly omnivorous animals. In the summer of the bear, but rather a vegetarian, and plant food plays a huge role in his diet. But in the early spring plants have not so much. What is necessary to feed him? First of all, he goes to look for ant. For days the bear wanders from one pile to another, unearth them with their claws and, like ant-eater, eats ants already awake. How much should it swallow these tiny insects, they have to fill your stomach? However, the bear is fed not only by ants. He breaks the rotten stumps and seeks out in them fatty longhorn larvae and other insects that feed on wood. Like a pig, he eats everything from insects to accidental fall, which senses the distance. In the spring catches frogs, lizards, a word that only will get. Exhume bulbs and tubers of plants. Bear already walking at this time with her cubs. In April of bears continues spring molt. Bear is very sensitive, and in the forests of the middle band, where he has remained, extremely timid, and most of all afraid of meeting with someone from a distance senses. Any unexpected sound of his scares. Therefore, it is very difficult to see a bear. But signs of its presence is much easier to see: a lot of the broken stumps, dug anthills, "sometimes", ie, the fossa, which digs a bear, and finally, the characteristic fingerprints bear armor on a dirt road on the bank of a waterhole, similar to a wide human footprint, with only holes from the claws, in front of fingerprints.
