Snapping Turtle at Chuang Yen Monastery – Photography, Images and Cameras

We took visiting brothers-in-law to the Chuang Yen Monastery and were watching people feed (despite a sign saying no feeding) the large numbers of very aggressive carp-like fish in the lake the other day when this medium sized snapping turtle put in an appearance. In the water he/she was outclassed. The fish were far to fast. However, the turtle had one great advantage: he/she could get out of the water, which he/she did and ate all the pieces of bread that didn’t make it into the water
