Silly question...

... But I'm really curious. If a Chad's tongue is as long as it's body and tail combined, how is it stored? Is it curled up, or just really stretchy, or what?

A cham has a bone in his mouth that the tongue goes over like a sheath. It is scrunched on there.

The muscle and tissue is very very elastic too.

I had a hard time thinking of words to use to describe how it works.

The muscles and ligaments that actually launch the tongue go deep into their body, not just their throat.

Well, I was picturing it curled up like one of those party blowers and I figured *that* couldn't be it!

No, it's more like if you have a pair of knee high socks on and push them down to your ankles.
How's that for a visual image?

Even though I know damn well that is not what is going on in there, that's how I like to picture it too...lol!! Glad I'm not alone ;D
