NC500’s Ullapool to see BEAR Scotland remove mystery gorilla sign
The NC500 mystery gorilla road sign in Ullapool is set to be taken down by BEAR Scotland as a “non-prescribed sign”.
The gorilla road sign was first spotted yesterday (April 17) by an Ullapool local, and has since gained immense attention online.
A BEAR Scotland spokesperson said: “This is a non-prescribed sign. Now that is has been brought to BEAR Scotland’s attention, BEAR Scotland will arrange for the sign to be taken down and removed.”
The sign was located on the A835 at Braes, just outside the village. Appearing below a ‘Beware Children Crossing’ sign, the new road sign features the silhouette of a gorilla within a red border.
It was unclear what the sign aimed to communicate – but one guess was that it means Gorilla Crossing. It also remains unclear where the mystery sign came from.
Another simian made headlines earlier this year when it went on the run from the Highland Wildlife Park at Kincraig.
