Yogi Bear and his pals are having a grand old time frolicking around Yosemite National Park in the absence of human interaction.

The National Park has been closed to the public since March 20, due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

It seems as if, in the midst of the chaos, nature is reclaiming what is rightfully hers and allowing her wildlife to roam in peace and quiet once again.

Hello wildlife

This video, shared by Yosemite National Park, and viewed more than 402,000 times, shows the park blissfully occupied by its native wildlife residents. Young deer and Coyotes are the stars of the show.

“While so much has changed for humans in recent weeks, it’s reassuring to see that nature carries on as it always has,”

The post reads “spring seems to be slowly creeping into the valley, the sun finally emerging after a week or two of rain and snow. Waterfalls are gradually picking up momentum, and wildlife is becoming more active, perhaps enjoying having the park mostly to themselves. Relax with us for a moment as we share a peek into Yosemite Valley during the current park closure.”

The park will obviously reopen to the public as soon as it’s safe to do so, and our human curiosity and passion to wander will take us back to these beautiful natural hideaways in no time. However, while it’s closed, it’s wonderful to see the wildlife taking full advantage of having free reign of their habitat.
