Chelydra Serpentina
A
carnivorous type of turtle that lives in fresh
water. Main diet includes small fish and marine life. They grow to be between quarter-sized and about 4 ounces, to be nearly 4 feet long and weigh 130 pounds.
Evil little children like to catch them and put
firecrackers in ther mouth.
Other little children, like myself, brought them home to irritate their
mothers.
Keep your fingers and other extremities away from their mouths, as they will bite anything that comes within range.
