SLUTA SKRÄPA NED!
This is Peanut the turtle, shortly after being found in Missouri in 1993. She was taken to to a zoo in St. Louis where the six-pack ring was removed.
It seems that she was trapped in the plastic ring as a young turtle and was unable to free herself. Subsequently her shell moulded itself to the plastic ring and she grew in the strange shape you see here.
Unfortunately the damage is permanent, but peanut is expected to live a long life and today she serves as a mascot for the fight against beach littering.
Please, always remember to clean up after yourself at the beach.

tror dock bilden e photoshoppad, både skalets form å plastens hållbarhet strider mot alla fysikens lagar. MEN det betyder inte att jag tycker det e ok att skräpa ner, såna där saker har strypt många djur

men det behöver ju inte betyda nåt. minns du inte bonsai-katterna? alla trodde ju det var på riktigt på 90-talet, även djurskyddsorganisationer, sen så visade det sig vara en bluff
