Here are three that I took. The first was at the Houston Zoo, the other two at the Florida Aquarium.
I like that top one especially. Like he or she is looking at the camera saying "Yeah, what!?"

This one always cracks me up:

Here's some, not the best quality, but oh well.
This one was taken down in Palm Beach at a turtle rehab facility
and the giant turtle at the Boston aquarium
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I love the second one Heather. Great colors.
Good thread Matthew. Turtles rule.
These are cool pictures. I like turtles but they've never been a favorite. Of course, nothing beats the sea otter for flat out balls to the wall bitch'n cooliality.
See...otters are so cool that I actually had to make up a word.
But, on to the point. I googled up "evil turtle" and there are quite a few good turtle pics. I thought you'd dig this drawing, Matthew.
oh. my. god.

no. he was moving much faster than i've ever seen a tortoise move, actually. the kid that worked there kept picking him up and bringing him back over to us.
ooooooooooooooooo. nice turtles.
I used to have turtles. Their names were Maturin and Roland. Guess why? The girl was Maturin and the boy was Roland. It was just my luck that I gave the name Roland to the boy because when they were little I had no idea about their gender.
Now they live in the Zoo because they got so big that I had to realise I couldn't buy them a tank that's big enough for them. Now they live in a very big lake in the zoo with lots of other turtles.
When they were little:

They became this big:
