Indeed. Will Cuppy mentions somewhere the Ridley Sea Turtle, once commonly called the Bastard Turtle because it was (mistakenly) thought to be a cross between a Loggerhead and Green Turtle. Cuppy suggests that the designation is a better fit for the Snapping Turtle. One can only agree.
Had to laugh at this. My first experience with a snapping turtle was as a good Samaritan trying to help one across the road near the river. Dude almost got me…lesson learned. I still like them, but show them more caution and respect now.
I don’t know if it’s this one, but there is a turtle who opens his mouth and there is a little appendage that looks like a wiggling worm. The poor little fish comes to see and “Chormp!”

Don’t ask a question if you don’t want to know the answer.
