Episode notes
Brown Bear Cubs
- Brown bears are surprisingly small at birth, weighing about one pound and resembling chipmunks in size.
- They are born blind, toothless, and mostly hairless during hibernation, growing to 4-8 pounds by spring.
Panda Digestion
- Pandas eat bamboo, which contains cyanide.
- They have a unique digestive system that converts most of the cyanide into thiocyanate, which they then excrete.
Polar Bear Eyes
- Unlike many mammals, polar bears lack eyelashes.
- Instead, they have three sets of eyelids that protect their eyes from snow, UV light, and even allow underwater vision.
