Bear activity is on the rise in Yosemite National Park. This year alone there have been 34 separate bear incidents, causing a whopping $3,034 in damage. That’s already 6% more incidents than last year’s tally and 55% more than Yosemite’s quietest bear year in 2019.
With winter fast approaching, bears in the historic park are preparing for hibernation with as much food as they can find, leading to a spike in food-related incidents over the past few weeks.
