In the vibrant waters of New Jersey's Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, a captivating encounter unfolds between a bold Chelydra serpentina, or Common Snapping Turtle, and a colorful Chrysemys picta, or Painted Turtle. The snapper, with its powerful jaws and beady eyes, fixates intently on a passing goldfish, a potential meal in its aquatic domain. North America's largest freshwater turtle, the Common Snapping Turtle, is a master of ambush, lying in wait for unsuspecting prey. #Nature #Wildlife #SnappingTurtle #ChelydraSerpentina #PaintedTurtle #ChrysemysPicta #NewJersey #USA #NorthAmerica #GreatSwampNWR #WildlifePhotography
