Nature Photos That Opened Our Eyes

Baby Alligator Snapping Turtle

Here’s a baby alligator which looks just like a dinosaur. They are known to live up to 200 years and grow over 200 lbs. The largest alligator snapping turtle on record is a longtime occupant of Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium, which weighed 249 pounds.  During the Great Depression, a massive 403-pounder was reported in Kansas, though this claim was never confirmed.
