Giant Dead Snapping Turtle...

I saw you this morning at the end of Old Finger Road.
Me- Wearing red plaid short-sleeve shirt, driving blue Ford Ranger pickup truck.
You- Dead, in the middle of the road.
You were alarmingly big, certainly the largest reptile I'd ever seen on Old Finger Road, living or dead. I would have expected to find you in a lake or river, but not on Old Finger Road, where the only nearby body of water is a muddy stream only a few levels up from a drainage ditch. And that water is over a quarter mile from where I saw you. How a turtle your size might have ended up in that stream, I can not guess. Nor can I figure why you would have crawled out the stream and dragged your unusually large reptile body a quarter mile AWAY from your preferred habitat. Bitter irony that after all your effort, you would end up squooshed under some redneck's truck tires.
