America’s most enigmatic angler. Alligator snapping turtles are equipped with a worm-like attachment on their tongue area, known as a “lingual lure”. They use this to lure in small fish, crayfish, and other aquatic prey. In this region, this seems to be primarily used with most efficiency as hatchlings and juveniles, as the adults become focused on a durophagous (eating hard stuff) diet of mollusks and turtles. It’s easy to see how this turtle can lay on a muddy bottom among logs and stumps, wig

Alligator snapping turtles get their name from their powerful jaws and the ridges of their shells that resemble alligator skin. Medusa, our resident alligator snapping turtle, enjoys spending most of her time in the water, buried in the mud. She can hold her breath up to three hours which is why you may not see her during your visit! | Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park

9.7K views · 375 reactions | Alligator Snapping Turtles are naturally lazy! They have a pink extension on their tongue that acts as a fishing lure.

Young alligator snapping turtles are a feast for the eyes. Gnarled keeled carapaces outlined with pointed peripherals, and skin covered in pointed tubercles that help break up their outline when in ambush, and also help detect movement of prey.
