Zoo Trip - Reptile House
Everybody has the same reaction to the Alligator Snapping Turtle.

It is a curious, curious, curious look, revelation as to what the turtle is, then a startled jump backwards.

Some little girl ran up to the glass and yelled at the poor guy, "I don't like you." Oddly, the turtle responded by swimming around madly, causing the girl to run off. I suspect I wasn't the only one who, in turn, didn't like the girl.

"Wait, don't take my picture yet...let me open my mouth all scary like."

Actually, this guy was a little shy.

But not the Asian Water Dragon. It was standing at the glass watching everybody in the building with great interest.
Whatever had the zoo animals acting goofy that Saturday, the reptiles were certainly in on it.
