here is a site that has all the species of butts with associated images available to witness…..endless entertainment

also i should mention that as part of their physiology they have so shed their old buttcheeks (leaves- they make a few pairs at a time, but theyre always paired up) every year to be replaced with new, fresh buttcheeks. i cannot make this up this is something they do.
