| Common Name: Snapping Turtle | Species: Chelydra serpentina | id#: 328 | | Location: Wyse Corner, Nova Scotia, Canada | Date Sighted: 2010-09-01 # Seen: 1 | User: JUNPonline |  Site Description: Dollar Lake Provincial Park. Lakelands with lots of minnows, frogs and grasses near shores. Included headshot when he poked up above water.
Comment : This turtle's shell was about 45cm long! Didn't know they got that big, the head and tail outstreached were another 15cm apiece. Was not scared by many children nearby viewing it, probably being fed regularily. Lots of green slime growing on it. |
