Yosemite National Park shared a video on Twitter of a bear “vocalizing” in a tree last Thursday. The adult male black bear lets the world know he’s there for the better part of a minute in the clip. “Bears can produce a wide repertoire of sounds, typically when defensive, afraid, distressed or aggressive,” the park tweeted. Between 300 and 500 black bears live in Yosemite, according to the park. Bear incidents, in which one of the animals causes property damage or takes food, are up by 32% compared to the same time last year, which was the year with the fewest bear incidents on record, according to the park.
