Went to a petting zoo near Billerica, MA. Noticed that all the dairy calves were very interested in something right by my feet. Turns out it was an enormous snapping turtle that had lost its way.
I helped the owner of the petting zoo get it into a trash can and released it in a nearby pond.

Snapper - Pagrus auratus (Forster, 1801) [more of this species]
Very similar to the Red Seabream (P. major) of the northern pacific. This species occurs south of the tropics. The are slight differences in the bump of the head, otherwise almost identical.
They can be identified by pinkish body with blue spots on the upper part of the body. The bottom most parts of the caudal, anal and ventral fins are white, the rest of those fins are transparent.
