This whimsical retro National Park Service wildlife safety poster is formatted as a satirical "Wildlife Incident Report" featuring the viral "If Not Friend, Why Friend-Shaped" parody song about deceptively cute dangerous wild animals. The aged vintage paper design includes detailed hand-drawn illustrations of bears, moose, hippos, blue-ringed octopus, raccoons, bison, and other wildlife, paired with playful warning stamps, official ranger safety guidance, and snarky handwritten asides reminding visitors to never approach, feed, or touch potentially dangerous wild animals. It uses light, humorous, relatable messaging to encourage respectful, safe wildlife viewing for national park guests.

I've also found that most friendly animals aren't that fond of being booped either. Even our cat would get all bleedy/scratchy after a loving boop.

Awesome! My favorite side note is "No, you may not boop it."

True. Though they were found of giving us chin bumps. Well at least one of them was.

Fun song. I'm impressed that the text looks great. That's a lot of text. Very cool song sheet
