The snapping turtle is considered the oldest of the living reptiles and is believed to have first evolved around 200 million years ago. It gets its name from the defensive biting snaps it exhibits when threatened. This bite can inflict substantial injuries to the curious predator. The snapping turtle, like all species of turtle, has a modified skeletal structure that includes a boney carapace, or shell, for protection.nnSpecifications:nnClaws sold individually or in sets of 2nThe photos shown are examples of what your specimen will approximately look like.
