this is a sad video of a deformed RES that has been trapped in a 6-pack ring for most of its life.

Yeah, someone previously posted that headline with a story on it. It was sad but I smiled when they named her Peanut.

The video won't show but I have a very stupid question I'm sure.
Unless I'm just not understanding, why wouldn't they just cut the six-pack ring off the turtle?

I think they did, but a deformity like that isn't going to go away, unfortunately.
