Keep Wildlife Wild
Yosemite is home to black bears, mule deer, mountain lions, and hundreds of other species. Bears are quick learners, have a powerful sense of
smell, and seek out food where it can easily be found. If a bear obtains
human food, it may learn to return for more.
For your safety and that of wildlife
•• Keep your distance from animals, even if they approach you.
•• Never feed wild animals.
•• Dispose of trash in bear-proof trash cans or dumpsters.
•• While enjoying your picnic, keep your food, trash, and other
scented items within arm’s reach.
•• If a bear approaches, make loud noises to scare the bear away.
