Turtle, photos on Flickr

near laos (tropical rainforest).I want to safe the life of the turtle and bought it.To avoid to be catched again I decide to give the animal to the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanic Garden.The responsible person there told me it`s a "Common snapping turtle" native to North America,not Yunnan or laos but he will keep it and take care.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Snapping turtles are raised on some turtle farms in China.[

On a canoe trip with a couple roommates, we woke up and went on a little photo adventure, trying to catch turtles sunning themselves on logs. Well this little guy thought he could just sink down in the water a little bit to hide, but we showed him. Brought him back to the campsite and shoot him up...with my camera! Even got some good shots of him "kissing" my roommate. Personally I like the tent in the background, sharing a similar shape with the turtle.

We encountered this turtle several times during the dive. She was quite shy and stayed away. But she could be easily identified by the sea acorns growing on her back.

In 1991, Centro Mexicano de la Tortuga was formed. The idea was to give the responsibility for the turtle’s survival to the very people whose economy had depended on harvesting the turtles.
