wildlife warning

Animal crossing sign

A wildlife warning is an official notice alerting people to dangerous animal activity in an area—bears near a campground, mountain lions on hiking trails, alligators in waterways.

Such warnings typically advise caution, recommend behaviors to avoid encounters, or temporarily restrict access: The park service issued a wildlife warning after several bear sightings near the picnic area.
