In 1959, a coffee maker was an optional extra in Volkswagen cars. The Hertella Auto Kaffeemachine was the first and only known dashboard-mounted coffee maker. Manufactured in 1959 specifically for the Volkswagen Beetle, it came with porcelain cups which could stick to the machine magnetically.
Takeo's Okusu Tree
Over 3000 years old, this camphor tree is the 7th largest tree in Japan. It is 30m tall with a trunk circumference of 20m, its branches span 30m wide from east to west, and 33m wide from north to south. This is the sacred tree of Takeo Shrine, which was built in the Nara period (735 CE). The roots of the tree resemble the feet of elephants and are wrapped in rough bark, with their central section split open near the surface of the ground. Inside is a gaping cavity with an area of 12 tatami mats, which houses a stone shrine deep within.
Fingers crossed nothing bad happens.

Can be mostly found in moist forests and can cover a horizontal distance of 10 meters or more in a glide from the top of a tree.

You're right. Just add some little front teeth below the head and it would be perfect
