When you're a deadite skeleton, life isn't filled with a lot of options. So they make the best of it by playing dead – Which is why we like to introduce them to Mr. Shotgun, who doesn't give them the opportunity to pretend there anything but Chalk.

That definitely looks like a local variety (Chelidridae genus). The imports (Elseya genus) are usually from Australia and New Guinea and look like sideneck turtles.

I was just watching some vids of alligator snappers on youtube and man are those things ornery when they're out of water! There was a 6" one that would practically jump up off the ground and turn 90 degrees in mid air to try to bite the owner's hand. Another one was chasing the owner across the living room floor trying to snap at him. lol!

lol! ally snappers do have a temper, their not that bad in the water, but on land they get defensive.

if you get one at a real young age an raise it up an get it used to being handeled an everything an of course it has o have a good temperment, then they wont be quite so agressive unless you make'em mad ;)
