We have really tamed my state,what goes on in Australia in general went in my state as well.the spanish name on charts was the tortouise,tortuas,the loggerhead was so common that had boroughs on the area I know as the sand Ridge.






Ummm,.. so do you mind telling me what state that would be? Or is that question too personal?
 
Yeah, we were already pretty sure it was a snapping turtle, but we didn't get too close to it. It's still pretty neat though. Are snapping turtles the only turtles with teeth? Just wondering.

No modern turtle has teeth, although some very primitive and early turtles, such as Odontochelys, had them. Like birds, turtle embryos start to produce teeth, but by the time they hatch, the teeth are no longer there. The genes for teeth are the same in all land animals, but the genes that stop tooth development in turtles are different than the ones that stop development of teeth in birds.
