Not all turtles are slow. Meet the Florida softshell turtle (Apalone ferox). This critter is relatively quick on land and is a rapid swimmer thanks to its hydrodynamic, flattened shell, and four strongly-webbed feet. It sticks mostly to water and is equipped with a long neck and snout that pokes above the surface, like a snorkel, to help it breathe.
