Max; that was...Thanks everyone for your comments...<br />Max; that was a good one and glad you liked it Deep Thinker.<br /><br />Courtney; they are ugly little critters unless you are an alligator snapping turtle, lol.<br /><br />Heather; I am with you. If they have jaws that strong, I don't want to come across one.<br /><br />Sharon; I'm not surprised that you picked one up, you crazy kid, lol. I can see you having one for a pet but it could be Dale's undoing...*critter chomping on wood*<br /><br />Gummer; the man at the zoo demonstrated their mighty bite by putting a chicken leg in it's mouth. It bit off the end, bone and all. That was creepy to watch.<br /><br />Jessica; thanks for giving another perspective on these creatures. I always enjoy your comments.Julie Fergusonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460274888229792456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3521447106798913483.post-25184853052642001442010-05-26T18:49:40.058-07:002010-05-26T18:49:40.058-07:00Those turtles live here in Alabama.

She was screaming hysterically and my brother took it away from me. I was so mad! I was like 3 or 4, had no idea it could hurt me. It just looked totally bad-ass. They are my favorite of the turtles.
