More like stashing enough food for the winter so they don't wake up dead next spring.

A bear, getting tired of stuffing himself every fall in preparation for the winter hibernation, went to a CFP for a calculation of how much he should eat without going over to make it through the winter. After calculating metabolism, calories stored, average temperatures, etc. The CFP gave the bear a diet to follow till hibernation. The Bear followed the diet, curled up and whet to sleep. Sad ot say, he died of starvation. Winter lasted 2 weeks longer than anticipated.

Moral....no matter how prepared or how well you calculate, you never know how long "winter" will last.
