Ever since I seen the first airing of a redneck sticking his arm down deep into a murky river hole (which you can only imagine for the water does not show her secrets), I always wondered what would happen... if they met something a bit more dangerous than the catfish. Sure there are alligators in most of the water holes down in the southern states of North America. We are even starting to see pythons making their mark on the landscape. But the animal I'm referring to is a nasty attitude creature that will strike fear into your heart.
This animal is the Alligator Snapping Turtle and let me tell you, you do not want to meet this creature face to face on its turf (or rather surf), and you darn sure wouldn't want to stick your hand, fist, arm, any part of your body anywhere near this creature's mouth or within striking range.
