I saw this Snapping Turtle on several different laps of the Raymond Pool loop at Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge on Saturday. When I took this photo, he was on the move heading up road against traffic, oblivious to the one way signs. With his massive size and prehistoric looks, he reminded me of the 1960s era Japanese monster movie creatureGamera. I feared for toy train and miniature city layouts nearby.
