Got to see this alligator snapping turtle during fieldwork and I was able to capture one of my absolute favorite animal behaviors while this big girl was getting her physical. If you look in her mouth during this video you can see that her tongue has a pink appendage that is wiggling pretty vigorously.
This behavior is called “lingual luring” and it’s a really interesting little evolutionary trick. That wiggly appendage on the snapping turtle’s tongue very closely imitates the movement of a wriggling worm, enough that a passing fish might swim in for a closer look. Pretty clever way to hunt!

Despite being known for its bone-crushing bite, the alligator snapping turtle “fishes” in disguise. It waves a worm-like fleshy bit on its tongue, waiting for a fish to take the bait.
