We join forces with Christina attempting to tackle this pain-in-the-butt cryptid mystery, only to have it completely run over us... with its wheel... on its ass! Yup, this cute seal has a freaking wheel between its buttcheeks... which it uses to zoom through its arctic landscape! The internet disregards it, the locals want it dead,  but we want to figure out just what the heck this wheel is??? A tail? A horny outgrowth? Petrified cheese? Or maybe something more disgusting 💩
