This movie is about Yogi and Boo Boo trying to save their home, Jellystone Park, from being shut down. It was released in the United States on December 17, 2010.

What the Movie is About

Jellystone Park is a beautiful place where Yogi Bear and his best friend Boo Boo live. It's also a popular spot for people to visit and enjoy nature. But the park starts losing money because not enough visitors are coming.

The greedy Mayor Brown sees this as a chance to make more money. He decides to close Jellystone Park and sell the land. This would mean that families would lose a great place to have fun outdoors. Even worse, Yogi and Boo Boo would lose their home!

To save their beloved park, Yogi and Boo Boo must team up with Ranger Smith. Ranger Smith is usually the one trying to stop Yogi from stealing picnic baskets. Now, they have to work together! They only have one week to find a way to save Jellystone.

A kind documentary filmmaker named Rachel also helps them. Ranger Smith starts to like Rachel a lot. Mayor Brown tries to trick Ranger Jones into stopping Yogi and Boo Boo. He wants Ranger Jones to become the head ranger instead of Ranger Smith.

Mayor Brown even tricks Yogi into accidentally ruining things, which makes the park get shut down. But Yogi, Boo Boo, Ranger Smith, Rachel, and Ranger Jones don't give up. They work together to show everyone Mayor Brown's sneaky plans. In the end, Mayor Brown gets into trouble, Rachel and Ranger Smith start dating, and Jellystone Park is saved!
