    Hello, the snapping force of the Buddha snapping turtle can reach 50 pounds of pressure per square inch, which is far more than the bite force of a human. In many species of terrapin, the bite force can reach 50-80 pounds per square inch, with the strongest reaching 100 pounds per square inch. The Buddha snapping turtle (Trionyx triunguis) is a large freshwater turtle with a bite force of 50-60 pounds per square inch.

    In addition, Buddha snapping turtles also have sharper teeth than other terrapids, so they can produce a stronger bite force.
