00:00The internet has a new favourite animal. Jimothy, the unusually round raccoon, has been spotted
00:06darting about in Seattle. A video of the quote-unquote Tubby Trash Panda running across a pathway
00:13racked up 6.8 million views in just a few days. The raccoon is believed to have a rare defect
00:20causing its spine to have shortened and giving the illusion that the animal has no neck,
00:24just a head on top of a body. Imagine if a child's drawing of an animal came to life
00:30and started running about around Seattle. The odd-looking cryptid creature has spawned
00:35hundreds of internet memes as online fans celebrate his unique form and ask themselves
00:41in this trying time of polarising opinions, what would Jimothy do?
00:52Not all heroes wear capes, especially if they don't have a neck.
