News of Elizabeth Banks directing a new movie about a bear that consumed 70 pounds of cocaine that was dropped by drug smugglers in 1985 has sent Twitter into a frenzy and even prompted Bette Midler to offer her services as an acting coach.
The plot of the movie titled Cocaine Bear is being kept under wraps, but it will be based on a true story.
In 1985, authorities reported that a 175-pound black bear died after eating cocaine from a duffel bag it found in a Georgia forest that was dumped in the area by a drug smuggler.
Authorities said the duffel bag was part of a large shipment dropped in the area by Andrew Carter Thornton II on a flight from Colombia.

It was the 80’s. Things spun out of control quickly. But in his short time on top Cocaine Bear produced 7 Hollywood hits, managed 3 mega hit rock stars, owned a mansion in Beverly Hills as well as a Malibu beach house. He was rumored to have been driving himself to rehab and just couldn’t stop reaching in the duffle bag when he succumbed.

Grizzly and black bears at the Hoonah, Alaska landfill prefer soiled disposable diapers. I am a witness.
They prefer soiled diapers?
Over what?
Jumping salmon?
Those lazy damn bears would rather eat dirty diapers than get out in the cold river and grab some jumping salmon.
This is what happens when you start babying bears.
Eating dirty diapers.

bartender. Getting angrier, the bear growls and smashes his paw on the
bar “I WANT A BEER!!!!!” “NO” shouts the bartender. In frustration,
the bear walks over to a lady sitting in a corner table. He eats her

the bartender). “I WANT A BEER” growls the bear. “We don’t serve bears
