My new Cuban Anole eating machine

           This Florida Snapping Turtle spent all day Tuesday with me. It came to work with me, went to a UCF Eco-Advocates meeting with me, then in the evening a Florida Native Plants meeting. It behaved so sweetly the whole day. It spent hours with its head in my arm sleeping through the meetings.
     I tell people, "Don't be decieved, when this thing eats its not pretty." Tonight (Wednesday) I fed it six Cuban Anoles and one dead Finch from the animal hospital I volunteer at.
    Note in this picture this Florida Snapping Turtle is very swollen. I cured this water retention, a skin infection it had and a bad smell too. It is doing much better now.
