Bear With Jar Stuck On Head Meets Sad End

This reminds me of a Woodsy Owl/Smokey the Bear anti-littering ad except it’s real and it’s pretty awful.

Long story short: bear in woods gets candy/popcorn jar stuck on his head.

The poor bear, hungry and dehydrated, desperately wandered into a Minnesota town. He was unable to eat or drink for several days.

After six days of attempts by local authorities to tranquilize and capture the bear, they eventually had to shoot him.

Now, I know some might pull a Ranger Smith here and say that it was the bear’s own fault for poaching some human food. But really, people — give a hoot.

Warned you this shit would happen but you wouldn’t believe him:
