The head is short, the snout is slightly pointed, and there are usually black stripes on the upper and lower jaws.

    The North American snapping turtle is almost as fierce. In general, baby snapping turtles are more ferocious than large predators. Among the four species of small snapping turtles, the Buddha crocodile is the most ferocious. However, the other ones are only a little more docile than the Buddha crocodile, and the North American crocodile can't stand it if it bites a few times.

    Raising a snapping turtle is to make it fierce, if you like to be docile, it is better to raise another turtle. There are a lot of crawlers who seem to have been injured by snapping turtles, hehe.

    There is no snapping turtle that is not fierce, it is originally a fierce turtle, and there may be slight individual differences, so it depends on the choice you choose when you buy a turtle.

    North American snapping turtles grow faster and are highly adaptable to the environment, so if you don't want them to grow quickly, you can control the number of finches to a certain extent.

    The snapping turtle is not suitable for multiple snapping turtles to be kept in the same enclosed environment, nor is it suitable to be stocked with other animals to prevent the giant snapping turtle from ingesting other species.

    North American snapping turtles should pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of water sources during the breeding process, keep their living environment ventilated, and make use of their growth and development.

    The North American crocodile coarse spine turtle is more ferocious, so it is best to avoid direct contact with your hands during the breeding process to avoid being bitten by it.

As for water, tap water is best for two days. The depth of the water is enough for your tortoise to get on all fours, stretch its neck, and breathe. Groundwater and river water should not be polluted. >>>More
