That's a snapping turtle. So named for obvious reasons.

I must have seen 20 dead ones the last few days as well as painted turtles. THe worst part is mostly females looking for egg laying sites.

drive carefully all,

nice!

I have some pics of some radiotelemtry work I did with snapper in the Rouge Valley near Toronto. I'll try to scan em and post em.

Try pinning on of those things down while drilling a small hole in the carapace to attach a telemetry unit........they are SOOOO strong!!!
