"A turtle should look like a 0, not an 8." Well, duh. We've all seen turtles before, Dude.
Unfortunately, this 20+-year-old turtle spent a large portion of her life with a plastic six-pack ring around her middle. Apparently, when she was young, she crawled inside it and then grew into it. The consequence: she's misshapen, and some of her internal organs are compressed. She's lucky, of course, because the plastic ring could've killed her. However, in this funny, little video, she seems to be highly mobile.
In case you didn't know, before you toss six-pack rings, you should cut them to little bits, so this doesn't happen.
1. It's amazing how often people don't do such a simple thing, and now you see the consequences.
