Whenever I think of Yogi Bear, I can’t help but think of my childhood.
The cartoon, created by Hanna-Barbera, was one of my favorites.
I use Yogi Bear quotes randomly when talking to my children, and they give me funny looks.
Probably because the anthropomorphic bear was hilarious!
He was witty and had this deep voice.
When he spoke and drew out the words, you couldn’t help but giggle.
The show mostly focused on the antics of Yogi and Boo-Boo, the smaller of the two bears.
The pair lived in Jellystone National Park (a nod to Yellowstone, but donut related).
They were often concocting crazy schemes to steal the food of the tourists.

Which of these Yogi Bear quotes is your favorite?
Hanna-Barbera created Yogi’s signature collar, so animators would only have to change his head when he spoke.
This enabled them to keep his body static and cut down on the number of drawings.
Boo-Boo’s necktie had a similar effect.
It also made both bears more like people.
Remember when you are out in the actual woods, bears are not fans of people.
They really do like to take your food, so always clean up after yourself!
It wouldn’t hurt to keep some bear spray and bear bells on hand (they don’t like loud noises).
They are pretty smart but obviously can’t read signs.
However, you can., so please don’t feed the bears!
