I had a revelation the other day that there are probably some funny signs out there related to animals. Sure enough, the wonderful users of Flickr were already on the case. Here's a collection of my favorites.

  2. Lisa Champagne says:

    Love the signs and will check around the site to see what else is there. Check out my site at http://www.champagnesurge.org Let me know what you think. Thanks

    Great signs, but, why shouldn't bears eat kids?

  4. DeviledEgg says:

    Because vandamonium….Kids eat candy and Mcdonalds and crap like that…And all that crap can't be good for the bears.

  5. Meirasanya says:

    I think the sign about not feeding the monkeys (with the monkey being sick in the toilet) is at Paignton Zoo in Devon, UK. If not, there's a very similar one there.

  6. Nature Photography Guy says:

    @Mike and @Lisa

    Thanks!

    @Vandmonium

    I think DeviledEgg is spot on. It's the same as us people eating fish that have been exposed to mercury. Fish may be healthy, but the mercury will harm us.

    @Meirasanya

    I think the monkey sign is particularly good. It speaks the language of some of the older kids.

  7. Lola says:

    Haha. LOVE the beaver one. That's awesome.

  8. jake says:

    these are funny signs, but in fact, they were probably necessary. People are kinda dumb, in general, about animals, and will do dumb things, if left to their own devices.

  9. Dave says:

    Jake, it's not because the people are stupid (That's a given) it's because of the insurance policy. If it weren't for that, I'd say leave the signs down and let the problems take care of themselves!

  10. Natasha says:

    There's a sign at the Greater Vancouver Zoo when you get onto the train that goes around the zoo. It says something like "Those who fail to keep hands and feet inside the train will be fed to the lions during our noontime show"

  27. pinkteddygirl says:

    Hey Man,

    The cougar sign is for real. Posted at Lake Cushman campground in Washington State. The cougars walk through that campground and have attacked packers and bicyclists in the area. It's OK to still camp there. Feeding your children to the cougars is just part of the nature experience.

  28. Robert says:

    I work at the Park with the hippo and ppl used to take pictures of him spinning his tail because it was cute until all of a sudden…..! The sign actually only slowed down the picture taking!
