Red Bear Dead Bear

National Park Service placed sign showing where a bear was killed by an automobile. Photo by Andy Sternberg.

Do you know what the speed limit in the park is? Unless otherwise posted the speed limit is 35 on all Yosemite roadways. Excessive speed is the number one cause of human and animal fatalities in the park. Slow down, take your time. There’s lots to see.

    The signs mark the “general area” where bears were killed, right? I know many more bears are killed than are marked by the signs.

      I believe you’re right, John. I think they mark the general area.
