Alligator snapping turtles get their name from their powerful jaws and the ridges of their shells that resemble alligator skin. Medusa, our resident alligator snapping turtle, enjoys spending most of her time in the water, buried in the mud. She can hold her breath up to three hours which is why you may not see her during your visit! | Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park

Alligator Snapping Turtles are naturally lazy! They have a pink extension on their tongue that acts as a fishing lure. This way, they can remain completely still and have their fish dinner come right to their mouth. We encourage some exercise with our female turtle and Louise was eager to swim over to retrieve a tasty fish this morning. #WorldTurtleDay | ZooAmerica

Animal adaptations are amazing! Alligator snapping turtles have a lure on their tongue! This special adaptation means that these turtles don't have to move and can remain sedentary luring their prey to them. You can see our youngest snapping turtles in the Children's Zoo presented by Primrose Schools! Do you see the lure? 📷: Caretaker Kayla | Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden

An 85lb male Alligator Snapping Turtle from north Ga, navigating the small stream he calls home. It seems in these smaller systems the turtles navigate fairly long distances up and downstream in search of food, mates, and deeper pools in the hotter months, as well as moving into Tupelo gum floodplain swamps when water rises. Masters of adaptation. #alligatorsnappingturtle #macrochelys #turtles | Greg’s Turtle Haven

Its most fascinating adaptation is the wormlike appendage on its tongue, known as a lingual lure. By sitting still with its mouth wide open, the turtle wiggles this lure to attract curious fish.
