Why you should never kiss a snapping turtle

The clue's in the name: A hapless Fujian animal lover decided to give a snapping turtle a goodbye kiss before releasing it into the wild


They're called 'snapping' turtles for a very good reason, but this hapless animal lover just had to find out the hard way and ended up in hospital.

The Chinese man was reportedly releasing the ferocious-looking creature into the wild but decided he had to give it a goodbye kiss first.
Unfortunately the love was not exactly requited and the snapping turtle did what snapping turtles do and snapped him on the lip.
The man, from Fujian province, was left with the turtle dangling from his face refusing to release its powerful, pincer-like jaws.

Eventually the animal was prized away from the unfortunate man who was immediately rushed to hospital.
A friend then posted the picture on the internet to warn people of the dangers of kissing snapping turtles.
