April 28 (UPI) -- Wildlife officials in Colorado said a bear broke into a car and destroyed the interior -- all to procure a tube of lip gloss. Colorado Parks and Wildlife tweeted photos showing the car that was destroyed by a bear in the early morning of April 22. Advertisement "There was no food/trash left inside, but there was lip gloss. Its scent was enough to entice the bear to check it out," CPW tweeted. The department said the incident should serve as a reminder that "bears know how to open car doors." "Keep unwanted guests out of your cars by locking the doors & removing anything with a scent," CPW said.
