The "desires" topic doesn't relate to bears having had desires or not.
It's just a kind of classification according to Hildegards visions on food.

What would be a desire, say with food: I like cake so much but i shouldn't
eat it and it makes me fat. --> I think the desire woun't make you any
happier.

Or if you have strong desire for a ... fast car...
fulfilling the desire *could* make you happier, but as long as you cannot
fulfill your desire, you won't be happier with it. More unhapy in longing
for it.

I mean this kind of desires Hildegard ment, would be increased by bears
meat. Who could confirm about this? I don't know anybody else who's eatin
bear, but you. ...
