Our sulcata once ate an entire plastic bag. We of course had no idea until my husband discovered it halfways out of her when she pooped. She is outside in the yard and eats anything she finds. Rude neighbors need to make sure they throw their trash away properly!!

Or it could be a plastic bag. A turtle can certainly eat a bag -- depending of course on how big each is.
