Yes,every now and then I'll catch him lying on the bottom with it's mouth wide open.It was actually doing it there in the photos,trying to lure the fish out of the log.One of my favorite turtle specie.
Have you ever seen the alligator snapping turtle use its lure?

.....the reflection on the tank glass kind of messed up the shots.Yeah I noticed after looking at pic again.
I didn't see it when I got home tonight. Hopefully it found a pond. I was thinking about taking it near the small lake near me.Does it look like you can dislodge it? I wouldn’t try sticking my hand near it’s head, but a snow shovel could work to lift it.
Yeah,common snapper and it could have been looking for a suitable spot to dig an egg nest,hopefully it found its way back to safety.I didn't see it when I got home tonight. Hopefully it found a pond. I was thinking about taking it near the small lake near me.
