Common Snapping Turtle

Chelydra serpentina

Description:

This was a turtle with very big feet and a pronounced tail drag, however the claws look short without the usual swiping motions a snapping turtle makes. A cooter with feet this size wouldn't be walking with its legs under its body. Clearest turtle cast ever!
