    That’s a snapper. It’s a mean bastard and will bite your shit right off. Getting them to leave the road can be a real battle.

        Ive shooed many of these big boys off the road. This is the best method, peferably while shouting ‘git you turtle! Shoo!’.

            It comes with experience. You’ll remember next time.

    Ah, you found a dragon! By which I mean a snapping turtle. Probably the species called common snapping turtle.

    Fun fact opinion: snapping turtles look way more elegant in the water than on land.

        They definitely look more like dragons than, like, any other turtles do.
