  • I just don't see how this could happen

  • @BRYTNIEpayne Me neither, but start cutting those rings and this stuff won't happen that's for sure.

  • The big lesson here is: One small trash matters.

  • and this is why i'm an environment freak,this has to be talked about and taken seriously

  • Stupid turtle

  • other turtles will find its curves sexy! lol this is sad though

  • Why don't use cardboard like us europeans? Bastards...

  • reddit ftw.

  • @jennicoleification

    There's no point in arguing with someone like spicerxc

    Obviously he doesn't realize that living things on our planet shouldn't suffer because of our own mistakes that are easily fixable.

  • This might have been a very old 6-pack ring. Modern 6-pack rings will decompose in 90 days, if exposed to light.

  • @OneRogueRanger Correction: some modern 6-pack rings.

  • I say just BAN the 6 pack rings~ What's the use of those anyway?! Nothing! 

  • lololol why is everyone making such a fuss over this turtle? It's a fucking turtle. We should be worrying about much worse things happening right now...

  • @spicerxc. I'd like to see you get trapped in a six pack plastic ring for most of your life and based on your comment, we'll see who cares.

  • @spicerxc you're just an ignorant

  • @jennicoleification useless human. no sense talking some sense into you since you're obviously just another stuck up person who only cares about himself. kbye

  • Poor child.

  • Oh...i feel so sad and sorry for the turtle!!! Thanks for uploading and sharing so people can be aware of the effects of littering these plastic soda can/beer can rings when thoughtlessly left on the beach or when it finds itself in the sea or waterways.

  • Poor girl :( I hope if you don't already, cut those beer can rings. It's so easy... I have been doing this since childhood (soda back then obv).

  • lol, who stuck the head of that turtle in the butt of the other?

  • i came here from 9GAG.

    p.s. humans suck

  • @nelsonricardocosta 9GAG ARMY!

  • It's not possible to stop humans from littering. The problem cannot just be solved by blaming the public. The manufacturer, COKE for example must start with the change and make their waste products biodegradable. This is not the only animal that suffers, other birds like penguins and fish too. It's up to the manufacturers and the people with power and money to make a difference.

  • @monalisandra "COKE for example must start with the change and make their waste products biodegradable." - They do. All six-pack-rings approved for sale in North America photo-degrade within 90 days by law. In reality, most actually degrade to a point where they are rendered harmless to wildlife in well under 30 days. This is a 20 year old turtle that, when she was young, had the misfortune of finding and crawling into an even older six-pack-ring.

  • @BloatedSensations. exactly. every six pack rings should go biodegradable.

  • I dont even drink beer so I dont think it matters to me the slightest

  • @Berith003

    This is also YOUR planet, so it SHOULD matter to you!

  • @Berith003

    You can get all kinds of drinks in 6-packs with plastic rings. It's not just beer, but everything from children's drinks to Cokes. And yes, beers too.

  • @missedthelikebutton yaomingggggg

    

  • The man is the animal.

  • :( poor turtle

  • stupid fucker drank all the beer and than got stuck!

  • This poor turtle I feel so sorry 4 that adorable turtle

  • unfortunately, a lot of people is not concerned about proper garbage disposal. I have seen with my two eyes higienic female whatevers thrown down the toilet, plastics, all kinds of paper... I would never do that! when I see something out of its proper garbage (paper, plastic, organic) I get mad because it's not that difficult!!!

    Most people think it doesn't matter, but EVERY move counts. Please, let's start being humans and not pigs. EVERYTHING IS REUSABLE

  • @cintamel25 i agree with you. There is almost 100% biodegradable female sanitation products available and can even be composted. I have a drawer full of of Natracare products and a properly maintained compost bin. It's dead easy if women want to do the right thing.

  • take plastic bags to local grocery store in Australia (coles, woolworths) and put them in a garbage bin where plastic bags get recycled. This bin is usually hidden a bit so ask if you can't see it. Myth is plastic bags are irrecyclable but they are, only you have to recycle them separately not with like cardboard/cans.

  • ugh this is so sad. i'm doing a presentation for my english class about how there's too much trash in this world and this is my attention getter. :\

    poor turtle!!

  • This is why soda manufacturers should hold sales all the time for 12 packs. No rings and we indirectly get our caffeine fix for less.

  • Stupid americans

    in spain we recycle , we have a proper containers and gov propaganda about ecology

  • @AIAZISten wow, im positive that some people in spain are as stupid as you and don't recycle, it's human. people make drunken mistakes. but this is horribly sad and i love turtles :(

  • @AIAZISten That's right, playing the blame game will fix everything. Great thinking! :)

  • America still use plastic six pack rings? in Australia we banned those years ago and instead use cardboard

  • Give your six pack rings to your local beer store. They will reuse them, and may even trade for them!

  • cruel things happen to these poor turtle simply because us..

    please realize it people!

  • *cries* DX People who litter should be sued.

  • they should go to jail.forever.fucking assholes!

  • The reason Western Civilization is so fucked up is because of the people who commented on this video rudely go about with their plastic lifestyles blissfully without a care in the world. America needs to grow up. It's sad really.

  • Poor little thing.

  • its not just a turtle if you believe in god then you will know why its just a turtle

  • I got stuck in one of those the other day.

  • not only cut it up but it needs to be disposed of properly. how the heck would garbage like that get into the waterways anyhow, if it were not for careless idiotic people littering.

  • Even if you do put it into a garbage can, it can blow around in the landfills, or when the garbage truck is getting the trash can maybe it falls out.

    However, some ships actually take large loads of plastic bags and just dump them in the ocean; otherwise, all the landfills would be completely overflowing from plastic grocery bags. It's really sad, if you think about it.

  • why is he asking the kids what theyre gonna do with their beer plastic rings

  • hey get a life. if u dun give a fuck about turtles or any other animals then dun fucking watch this vid.

  • Poor little guy. Turtles are so sweet too.

  • My head is the shape of a condom. i wonder why?

  • cuz ur such a dick?

  • Does anyone know which conservatory this turtle is at? Poor little thing.

  • makes me want to not cut them up, cool turtle

  • im going to go out and wrap up some turtles!

  • good video, thumbs up!

  • I really like turtles, and purchase my drinks packaged in cardboard boxes to promote turtle awareness and safety.

  • I always cut those things. Sad video-lucky the turtle survived

  • your all sick...poor thing

  • Poor thing. It's horrible what we humans do to the planet & its inhabitants.

    It takes literally ONE second to cut up those plastic 6-pack holders. We can all manage that, I think.

  • AWESOME.
