Matamata Turtle

Matamata Turtle
LOOKS THAT KILL

This bizarre turtle catches fish by lying at the bottom of a river or stream. The algae-covered shell looks like a rock and the fleshy projections around the face lure fish. When a fish swims close, the Matamata opens its mouth and expands its neck causing an inrush of water and engulfing its prey.
