 Snapping Turtle
We saw this Grand-Daddy snapping turtle in the Concord River near the Old North Bridge Snapping turtles are the largest of the freshwater turtles inhabiting the United States. Snapping turtles are bold and aggressive hunters. Their massive, sharp-edged jaws are good for grasping many different aquatic and semi-aquatic creatures. They defend themselves in a manner similar to snakes by "striking" at enemies. The speed at which they strike rivals that of the rattlesnake. So quick is the movement that the eye is barely able to follow it.
