BEHOLD THE BEAST!
Just look at this menacing creature!
I had an opportunity today to photograph a Snapping Turtle with an attitude. It was risky, but I was able to get my camera pretty close and thankfully I did not get bit. Check these wild photos out!
IN THE FACE OF A BEAST

We saw a tortoise the other day walking across the street. There is so much wildlife here in Florida. Beautiful creatures. I hope it is alright, a lot of people saw it on the street.
Cute little guy!....:)...
Lol....it really does have an attitude. Was looking like a big bad boss until I saw the proof picture.
LOL - I thought that would get a few people!
Haha
It sure did get to me
I thought I was the only one... @papa-pepper..@gamsam don't you think he is really doing a pretty job out there
He sure is
Looks like you're right on target. I just read @samanthajbarnes post today and she says May 23 is World Turtle Day!
LOL! If @samanthajbarnes says it, it must be so! It seems to have it's own logo and other mentions throughout the internet so I feel fairly confident that it is a thing. https://www.worldturtleday.org/
Lol, if it's on the internet it must be true, right?! I'll take YOUR word for it ;)
👍👍 feri good
Oh my goodness!.. At first when I saw the picture I threw my phone.. Wow.. What on earth is that.. Haven't seen a turtle as bad as a beast like dis Mehn... @papa-pepper you're really doing a good job man.. I'll love to know more about this animal, is it just a normal turtle or what.. But I won't resist saying that you have a wonderful camare there.. The picture looks so sharp and wow beautiful... You could have taken more shots lol... But with the prove pictures, I was another relieved tho. Since you can make hold of it then I guess it's not as bad as a beast right??
Wow....you tagged it behold the beast and I am tagging it beauty and the beast because your photography really made the beast bold and beautiful, I used to think turtles are pretty gentle animals. I never knew they could be aggressive enough to bite, taught they only do that when eating. @papa-pepper thanks for the photography, with it I can really picture what a life turtle really looks like because I have never seen one before, but it kind of looked very tiny when you picked it up..
looks creepy if this close, but this is a very beautiful animal, I like this.
Haha! Thank goodness he was only a little guy! Those dudes are scary!
When I was a kid there was this old guy who would pay us $5 if we found him a snapper of any good size. Charlie the Bee Man. (He was a beekeeper too.)
He would eat them. He always said 'there are 7 kinds of meat in a turtle!' To this day, Im not sure what that means, but he really liked his turtles, haha!
Wow a really cool shot. You shoot it from a very close distance. I really liked the picture when he opened his mouth. Thanks for sharing. Good luck always for you @papa-pepper.
