Which Hanna-Barbera bear lives in Jellystone Park?

The Hanna-Barbera bear who lives in Jellystone Park is Yogi Bear.

Yogi Bear is an anthropomorphic brown bear created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. He first appeared as a supporting character on The Huckleberry Hound Show in 1958, then received his own program, The Yogi Bear Show, in 1961. The cartoons center on his attempts to outwit Ranger Smith and steal picnic baskets in the fictional Jellystone Park.

Yogi’s sidekick is Boo Boo Bear, who is generally more cautious and sensible than Yogi. Yogi is also known for catchphrases such as “Hey, hey, hey,” “pic-a-nic baskets,” and “I’m smarter than the av-er-age bear!” Jellystone Park is a fictional setting inspired by Yellowstone National Park, rather than a real park where the cartoon character literally resides.

The character’s name is commonly associated with baseball player Yogi Berra. Berra considered legal action because of the similarity, although the resemblance was described as coincidental by Hanna-Barbera. Yogi later lent his name to a chain of family campgrounds, the first of which opened in Wisconsin in 1969.
