Invasive alligator snapping turtle found in Cumbria

A vet says the creature, named Fluffy, could have eaten everything in the water if not found.

Looks like a giant nutty turd

Looks like some kind of demon.

Wonder how long it is until a colony of them gets found somewhere on a major river and snapping turtles become just another one of those things destroying the environment.

Jesus Christ, grow up to 80kg!!!!!

They're properly dangerous, too.

They have a horrific bite, and can take a chunk out of you.

I do like how the article says vets advise against owning them as pets because of their 'complicated needs', but it then says "the greedy ***** eat literally anything".

Maybe we can breed them to deal with the XL bullies?

Prehistoric looking thing, too. Would run a mile if I saw that, no thank you.

If they taste as nice as grey (gray) squirrels and American crayfish, then leave em alone

I dunno, it is Cumbria, probably mutated.

I once went to the visitor centre at sellafield, there was a thing there that said something like the higher than average rates of leukemia in the local area are caused by viruses from migrant workers.





...........uhuh.

Mate down the pub knows someone selling a turtle your son/daughter was looking for and he's looking to sell cheap as his son/daughter, turns out to be allergic to them..

 

[Junglist]

What a lovely boy. What’s that you say? No he’s tame. He doesn’t bite. He’s just friendly and wants to give you a kiss.

I rarely find myself clutching my winky when browsing the internet, this is one of those times.
