It borders on nearly inconceivable that any wild animal can grow so exceptionally plump over the course of just four months. But, it's happening.

The voting for Fat Bear Week in Katmai National Park -- where bears are blessed with a copious supply of sockeye salmon that allows them to fatten up tremendously before hibernating -- has opened up, and there are two matches in play on Wednesday.

Match 1 pits former Fat Bear Week champion Bear 409, known as "Beadnose," against the still-growing adult male Bear 151, called "Walker."

The second match of the day, posted at 4 p.m. ET, pits Bear 845, or "Divot," against Bear 503.

Both these bears also have rich histories. Four years ago, divot survived a severe wire-trap that sliced an inch into her neck, while Bear 503 was adopted by Bear 435 ("Holly") after being abandoned by his biological mother.

Fat Bear Week is certainly entertaining for us far-off viewers. But for the wild animals, growing fat is essential.

The bears lower their metabolism to extreme degrees during winter hibernation.

Yet, the energy they do consume is believed to come almost entirely from their fat stores. Fatter, in short, isn't just better for bears -- it's a big-time adaptive advantage.
