Is It a Crocodile or a Turtle?
A lot of people like to keep a turtle as a pet at home. But how about an alligator dressed up as a turtle? Recently, a photo of a reptile with an appearance of an alligator and a turtle was posted by a netizen named Anastasia Steshina PO in Russia. The reptile has a fierce look and an angular shell. An expert says it's a species called Alligator snapping turtle. This kind of turtle is more often seen in Southeast of the United States. Rarely do they appear in Russia, expert says. The photo has gone viral right after it was posted online.
Alligator Snapping Turtle vs Common Snapping Turtle
Often confused for one another the prehistoric looking Alligator Snapping Turtle and the more widespread Common Snapping Turtle are two very distinct species.
