WOW! NO! Sorry, try again.
![]() (Actually, this one isn't so easy, because as you said, bears don't usually gather together. It's not a common thing to happen, and it's not a common word to hear.) In fact, if it were only Polar bears, you'd be correct! But I need the word for a group of any kind of bears. Stitchawl Last edited by Stitchawl; 06-01-2011 at 08:22 AM. |

In German you would call it "eine Horde Bären", direct translation is a horde of bears
>But I need the word for a group of any kind of bears. Also for Care Bears? Or those silly Buddy Bears? |

Extra points to you for creativity. Taken away again for being incorrect.

We don't have bears in New Zealand, so for us it might be an absence of bears.
A hug of bears? Poohbear should be here to answer this one. ![]() |

Sorry, still no correct answers to the bear problem... I guess a hint is in order.
Perhaps Columbo would be able to solve this problem. Stitchawl. |

If my brain isn't cooked, I seem to remember it has something to do with hibernation/naps ....
[Your Columbo hint gave me an image of a bear in a ratty trench coat chewing on an unlit cigar] |

A sleuth of bears - this actually sounds familiar.
