By eliminating the center cardboard tube, they would save 17 billion toilet paper tubes from being thrown away each year. Quiz: How many tubes do you use? This is enough to fill the Empire State Building twice! Check out their commercial.

This is not a promotion for Scott. This is a request to not #tossthetube. Let’s reuse the tube as a research project.  Select an exotic or endangered animal. Research the animal of your choice.  Once you have learned about the animal transform a toilet paper tube into that animal.  Your entry must:
