What would one need emergency honey for?
Well, let us surmise one thing form the sign: it exists. Since it’s there, then it’s essential that multiple people be able to locate the emergency honey quickly, just as one must be able to locate a fire extinguisher within seconds when one is needed.
In this case, the sign and its referent honey are at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, D.C. In a 2014 article for PBS NewsHour, journalist Rebecca Jacobson explains that zookeepers stash containers of honey around the facility to distract any bears that escape. Throw the honey in one direction and flee in the other.
