Episode synopsis
"Yogi the Cave Bear" is an episode from The New Yogi Bear Show (1988). In this episode, Yogi Bear and Boo Boo find themselves transported back in time to the prehistoric era, where they encounter a world filled with cave bears and other prehistoric creatures. Yogi, ever the opportunist, tries to fit in with the cavemen and cavemammals in order to make the best of the situation. He quickly gets involved in the prehistoric version of his usual picnic basket-stealing schemes but is met with some surprising twists, as the prehistoric bears are much stronger and more rugged than Yogi is used to.
