EP Flash: Hibernation (http://escapepod.org/2006/01/24/ep-flash-hibernation/)
By Madge E. Miller (http://madgemiller.typepad.com/).
Read by Stephen Eley.
Two Alaskan Kodiak bears joined a small circus where the pair appeared nightly in a parade, pulling a covered wagon. The fact that they had joined the circus was not so strange; the circus life was very popular even for the better class of bear. The strange thing was that they were both primitive mutes. This alone elevated or, in the opinion of some bears still angry about the Great Russian Dancing Bear Revolt of ‘06, lowered them to the level of freak show attraction.
Rated G. Contains non-graphic ursine violence.

Fun! A future ruled by bears, and a twist that I didn't foresee. :)
