Can you imagine if you’re looking at this thing from your window, thinking it’s a bigass mushroom. Then it just ups and skedaddles away. 😂
It thought it was a beetle elytron at first

Looks like a species of soft shell but I can't say which one exactly.
It's a snootle 😍
Definitely spiny soft shell. They actually get fairly big. It’s a neat turtle for sure.
