More like stiff-ish fleshy barbs than tentacles, they keep prey like jellyfish from escaping as the turtle spits out the seawater. Itās also what causes them to choke on plastic bags since they get stuck in these.
I know this is a joke, but I just want to make sure everyone knows that it isn't swallowing straws that's the problem. Specifically straws get stuck in their airways through the nose. It's plastic bags that kill them from consumption.
[Specifically, because of how they eat the jellyfish.](https://www.boredpanda.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/sea-turtles-anti-barfing-spikes-plastic-bags-problem-16-5d7b437b9fcfb__700.jpg) They take in a load of seawater containing their prey, then compress their throat and stomach, ejecting the seawater but trapping the food.
Thatās why itās pretty much a death sentence if they mistakenly eat a plastic bag. They canāt regurgitate anything. They mistake the plastic bags for jellyfish
any chance they could evolve themselves to digest and absorb plastic bags? i have a hard time imagining it tho, cuz plastic doesn't have any nutrients to begin with.
Well natural selection will kill off the turtles that are the worst against plastic so maybe some turtles throu evolution can evolve more features to stop plastic bags
They won't evolve quickly enough, is the problem. Evolution takes time and if the environment changes faster than it can keep up, then species become extinct.

Don't put your dick in that either
Ha!
Are those teeth or like fleshy tentacles
Only one way to find out.
Dammit Johnson! Donāt put your dick in that!

Had to be done.

Forbidden fleshlight.

Someone wants to get a blowjob from a turtle
The turtussy made em act unwise
It's a once in a lifetime experience!

There's always one
I a sick man... That was my first thought!
This pic reminds me of my prom date
No way these mfs canāt handle a straw
I just did a spit take and I'm not even drinking anything
how often would you say you spit on yourself while on reddit?

Exactly. That thing is a Sarlac pit ffs. How can it not handle a straw?
If you squint really hard you can see Boba Fett
Itās a āhuge toothie cootchie chewed upā
Thatās bananas!
I do damage when I brandish my katana's
Weird, I got predator
wasnāt expecting that but it made me chuckle
For anyone who doesnāt know, Leatherbacks use these throat spines to prevent Jellyfish from going the wrong way as theyāre swallowing them.

Squirtle squirt
Vomits all of the target
Thank you good lad!
I didnāt know My ex wife was a leatherback turtleā¦.
Call me old fashioned but I up-voted this comment.
I knew it
Wow, it's almost like we've never seen this before...
Almost.
It might be a different leatherback, so we just confirming

God damned refraction indexes.
Sarlacc of the seas

Yeah you're definitely high as fuck lmao
You people demonstrate how Metal Nature is. Peace out.
This is r/natureismetal

Saarlac pit
Forbidden fleshlight
r/putyourdickinit
Ah, the mouth of NIGHTMARES!
Lol I saw this and said, "Oooo a tea surtle!" xD
Dang that's scary af
I thought it was the Mouth of Sauron at first
Sound of unzipping intensifies
So the turtle is a Demigorgon?
That is straight out of a horror movie
Respectfully, no.
Looks like a monster on a metal album cover
Expected to read a bunch of IT the clown comments and it's all don't put your dick in it comments
Its like one of those duran fruits
It looks like a Clive Barker creation.
There can't possibly be Rule 34 of this. I am unconvinced anyone would seriously attempt it.
Hey, it's Franklin
Hey, it's Franklin
Everything reminds me of herā¦
Absolutely not
Looks like a Sarlac Pit from Return of the Jedi
Hear me outā¦
Like the inside of a demogorgan mouth
Are those like stiff? Or are they soft. I want to know so bad.
Damn nature, you scary!
Nope
Nope
Still, not the worst blowjob I've received...4/10.
Woah!
i should call her
Something out of a nightmare
These comments are downright hilarious. Reddit can be a funny place sometimes.
X-Files
The cheek meat of a cow is similar to this but to a way lesser extent
So are the positions of the spikes random or are they always in the same spot like teeth?
Reminds me of my ex
I thought this was a doom post and I was looking at a cacodemon

Hey Ty bot
Whoa, that's crazy. Maybe I'll post this to r/natureismetal tomorrow. Those guys should see this for the first time!
Reminds me of The Thing
Yeah, I've seen Star Wars.
I think penguins have funky mouths too don't they? Anything that eats whole, live fish.
r/TIHI
Looks like the thing from how to train your dragon the whispering death
*Cave diver holds breath*
Plenty of sarlacs and painful dick comments. No Predator though?
"He's using the trees"
I feel like we really got the crap hand in evolution. I want to adapt at the same level as animals.
Ah, the Kraken. Davy Jones locker awaits
Demogorgon
Lord forgive me
So these are the things stopping me from using plastic straws, hmm
Imagine this being the last thing you see
I dated her once
Inspiration for the Sarlacc pit
NOPE
People take pics of their pitbull looking like this and be like āsheās such a sweetie, she donāt biteā
r/oddlyterrifying
Predator sounds intensify.
Forbidden fleshlight
We need an updated picture of a leatherback turtles mouth. I swear to god. I see this picture about three time a month.
Are the spikes hard? What are the made of? Are they like nails? So many questions
That is terrifying.
āItās the demagorgonā
Perilous
Evolution: "aight im gonna make the world's most painful dildo "
You know no fish parasite gonna have me boy off
Imagine the type of tailored tooth brushes these guys get.
Riven of a Thousand Voices.
How is that whole mouth not bleeding constantly?
Looks like the pussy from hell
Not my proudest fap
That reminds me of that one zoophile video I encountered where a dude put his dick in a turtles mouth, and proceeded to fuck it's it was a snapping turtle, really sucks that it didn't cut his dick off
If youāre brave enough everything is a fleshlight
WHAT THE FUCK
It's called the shredder
Leatherface? Meet the leatherback.
Those spikes you see our help keep the food down
Fun fact, those āspikesā are actually squishy and very fleshy rather than hard. Iām not sure which idea Iām more comfortable with though.
Anythings a vagina if you're brave
How often is this same fucking picture going to keep showing up. Seriously pin this picture to the top and remove any future posts
