*Hat tip to reader Jim for the tip*
What Hollyweird will do to make a buck? The latest is making a documentary film, or that’s what they call it, about grizzly bears in Alaska. Presented as filming bears in the wild, the bears actually live on the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center land fenced in on about 18 acres of land.
Different samples of food are placed around a clear Plexiglas box with a former Soap Opera actor in it. Viewers are led to believe he is sitting on a bear trail in the wild, with clips leading you to believe you might be near the Russian River. The film is titled, “Bear Feeding Frenzy”.
What’s even worse is they place a manikin dummy, in addition to the one in the box, named Billy out beside the box in a position that is supposed to be taking a nap, making it appear as though the dummy was needlessly being “attacked” by the bears, when in reality the penned up bears are playing with it because they are bored. The producers do the same thing with other objects like a tent.
