<description>&lt;p&gt;I read on digg someone commented to say it was a sea turtle- looks more like a sea turtle then a raccoon.

&quot;Ann Coulter!&quot; LOL&lt;/p&gt;</description>

and it&apos;s a cross promotion with some company or movie or whatever. 

I guarantee that&apos;s what it is. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;

Remember Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles? Remember The Secret of the Ooze? Remember Shredder&apos;s mutant henchmen Tokka and Rahzar?

This is totally a viral marketing campaign for a TMNT reboot:

<description>&lt;p&gt;There is no such thing as a turtle without its shell.  The shell of a turtle is part of it&apos;s body.  It doesn&apos;t come off like a jacket.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
