Turtles may not be cuddly, but c'mon, they're cute. Adorable slowcoaches with elephant feet, destined to lose each and every race, retractable heads cute as a button.

If you think that's the case, you haven't met Snappy! First spotted some 17 years ago in a Caldicot Country Park pond in South Wales, this snapping turtle has spent the past couple decades on the lam devouring fish, ducks, and whatever else he can catch.

The killer turtle has recently been caught, and he has been moved to the Tortoise Trust rescue sanctuary in west Wales.

It's hard for me to believe he weighs only 20 pounds, but regardless, a duck is no match for that.

This is another prime example of what happens when pet turtles are discarded into the wild. Yes, Snappy must have been a pet, since snapping turtles are native to North America.
