I recommend bringing some Barry White CDs in a very reliable boom box. Get a sweet plump beehive, heavy with honey - and not one of those cheap paper hornet nests! Big mistake, let me tell you! Anyway, cozy up slowly and respectfully, and whisper something like "Hey sugar, it's half past October, how ya gonna keep the den warm? If she answers with something like "Baby, there's one more berry to pick in the valley first" then you're in! Otherwise, the rangers will find your chile-head ID card in the melting snow in the spring.
