Anyone else think this would make an excellent ad campaign?

How do you force a bear to do anything? Plus it looked like he was enjoying that Coke.

Did the customers ever give paws and think that this was wrong?

I thought for sure this would be an Onion article about those Coca-Cola ads with the polar bears.

I would have preferred that over this. :(

According to the last meal statistics of death row inmates coca-cola is a lot more popular than Pepsi. So that is definitely a market they could look into and exploit.

That's extremely terrible, yet not very surprising. Messed up stuff (especially with animals) like this can and does happen fairly easily in countries like this.

I think we need to bear in mind that this is a foreign country, and their customs differ from ours.

Either way, I imagine the dead bear is resting well up in heaven, free from panda-ring tothe crowds of people. Still, I would have loved to meet that bear and take a picture, I am sure it would have been a kodiak moment

That's disgusting. I'm glad it wasn't a polar bear, because if it were (and it was an ad campaign), coca-cola would be getting an earful from me.

Hopefully the bear doesn't get lost in the afterlife, I'm sure it isn't an easy picnic getting your bearings after you've been jacked with coke.

Hopefully it eats the peoples souls in the afterlife for feeding it coke

Did you skip the part of the article where it says the bear was locked in a small, filthy cage dying of malnutrition? I also find it hard to believe this is an isolated case when you consider the reaction from the people in the cafe, I'd be more inclined to believe that animal abuse is common place.

Well, they shouldn't be caging the animals like that, but it's not like the soda was the thing that killed the bear and they were forcing it down the bear's throat.

And is that even Coca-Cola, or just some local cola with a red label?

At least it wasn't Mountain Dew. He'd have all the same health issues plus he'd be fat from all the sugar and probably sterile, too. Not that he's getting any locked up like that, but just knowing you're sterile somehow makes you feel like less of a man :P
