15K views · 306 reactions | Have you ever thought the Alligator snapping turtle is “fake”? This turtle is not only fooling you—but also its prey! The Alligator snapping turtle remains still and lures fish with its tongue, literally! This appendage looks like a worm wiggling in the water. And now all the snapping turtle needs to do is wait for its prey to get a closer look. Happy #AprilFoolsDay from the fauna that fake it!  | Columbus Zoo and Aquarium | Facebook
