Yogi Bear

Pic-a-nic thief

Yogi Bear is a cartoon character created by Hanna-Barbera in 1958—a brown bear in a porkpie hat and collar who lives in Jellystone Park and schemes to steal picnic baskets from visitors.

His catchphrase "smarter than the average bear" and sidekick Boo-Boo made him an icon of American animation.

The name puns on baseball legend Yogi Berra.
