    Then again, it might be because she was in the act of doing it at the time. I've heard human women in labour say that too.

    That's just plain silly, Jane S!  How could they communicate, duh?  Or I suppose in your little make-believe world, every single bear is mute, right?   

    Listen, you're cute and I like you, but don't try to sell me on your wild theories.
