Summer, 2009 ~
In this part of the country, I'm told a snapping turtle can grow to thirty or forty pounds. This one was sunning himself on a rock in the middle of the Crow River. It looked as if he was outgrowing even his impressively large shell. That, along with his long tail and threatening claws, made it easy to imagine that his lineage could be traced directly to the age of dinosaurs.
