Yosemite-Wildlife In And Around Yosemite
Oh, the Yosemite-Wildlife! It is easy to see mule deer, squirrels, raccoons, the Great Grey Owl, fish, coyotes and the Steller's Jay Bird almost on a daily basis. If your one of the lucky ones, you'll see a Black Bear, Peregrine Falcon, Golden Eagle or a California Bighorn Sheep. Hunting is not allowed in Yosemite National Park. You are not allowed to feed the animals although the squirrels, Steller Jay and raccoons are fed by an awful lot of visitors! The Bighorn Sheep are rarely seen on the valley floor. These are seen coming in on Highway 120, on hikes and driving to Tuolumne Meadows.
Human food does not do these animals any favors. If you are caught feeding the animals there is a $250 fine. Admire the animals from a safe distance and pull out your camera and take a picture!
