Ged Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I understand that the Alligator Snapping Turtle was discovered in the drains of innner Sydney and it was suspected that he was one of a number that had been stolen from Taronga Zoo years earlier. Great photos by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that the Alligator Snapping Turtle was discovered in the drains of innner Sydney and it was suspected that he was one of a number that had been stolen from Taronga Zoo years earlier. i heard that too ged.those photos dont do him justice he was massive id have a heart attack if i ran into that thing in the sewer.when i took those photos he was wiggling his tongue trying to get something to eat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaZ Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Nice pics Jason. You've inspired me to get up there for a visit soon. I'll be sure to teach my wife Mel's trick before we go. I'm assuming it only works on male kangaroos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
