I have an early memory of a snapping turtle making an attempt towards the toe of my brother's shoe. Not that my brother was kicking it - just attempting to persuade it to move off the road. I've also rescued (read: picked up and moved off the road) a non-snapping turtle that was crossing a road near my home. It was kept as a pet by my neighbour and later donated to a zoo. It must have been about 8" to a foot across the shell, and seemed to quite enjoy the watermelon slices we gave it.
