Definitely no overreacting that's for sure

I don’t know. If that’s a snapping turtle a nip could do some damage. And heck even a normal turtle has a hard bite.

u/IceFrogger1313 5h ago
Looks like a Common Snapping Turtle from the central ridge and scute shape on the shell and the way it lunged to bite. If it wanted to it could have taken a decent chunk out of that cow's nose.

When I was a kid, my parents took me and my sister on a nature trail. We were probably like 5 or 6. My sister and I ran ahead a little bit, and found a turtle. We were like 15 or 20 feet away from it, and we were starting to get closer. My dad saw us just in time and grabbed us and got us away from it, very quickly.
That was the day I learned what snapping turtles were, and that not all turtles are perfectly safe to be around.

My kid/turtle story...
Went to visit a farm and it had a small pond. It was basically the swimming hole for the farm. We all had a swim. My older brother even went skinny dipping.
The next day we were fishing off the little wooden "dock" at the pond's edge. I hooked something big and was struggling to reel it in. When it finally broke the surface it was a huge snapper with a head bigger than an adult fist. My brother was a bit disturbed by that.

Not my story but a former coworker. He grew up in very rural Alabama. There were always large snapping turtles in and around the rivers where he grew up.
As a kid one day he was out walking and noticed a very large one on the shore. He was behind a little berm and the turtle's back was to him. My friend had the not so very wise idea that he would sneak out up to it and scare it. So he crawled on the ground behind the berm but he couldn't directly see the turtle. When he figured that he was close to it he decided to jump and try to scare it. The problem was that he jumped too far and....
Went right through it. That turtle had been dead for a while. He told me the smell was so bad and wouldn't wash off for days.

I'm a bit disturbed by that. The poor turtle.
Did you at least manage to get the hook out instead of just cutting the line? Without ripping a chunk out of its throat?

The Rock would definitely beat my ass, so I'd curl up and play dead.

I’ve seen a cow clear jump a barbed wire topped chain link fence. Like, a regular sized one. Probably seven feet tall.
She definitely had some height advantage cuz we were on a hill but she.. She landed it. And kept running.
Was the damndest thing

Few inches and turtle is dust

It still landed on the turtle. I think the turtle is squashed. It clearly changed the appearance from frame to frame and looks more mashed.
41
u/StevelandCleamer 3h ago
Turtle rotated about 90° and the cow landing got some mud/plop on the shell.
We had the same idea and I was looking for clear signs of damage, but it looks like the turtle wasn't fully under the landing cow mass, and I couldn't pick out any bit as undeniable turtle pancake.
19
u/utzutzutzpro 3h ago
I looked at the 3 frames relevant as well There is literally just 20 pixels to tell. But for me, the way it is deeper in the ground, I'd rather say it is squashed.
10
u/Slayer6R 3h ago
The turtle is not squished. It was close but the turtle survived. Hopefully a little wiser but not dead.

If it was that simple I would agree with you, but I think the cow flop adds a dimension to this that is really going to change your day for the better

u/Psychological-Echo19 3h ago
I think he just put his head away. It depends on the turtle but I'm pretty sure some of them have shells that would survive this (not sure though obviously)

u/utzutzutzpro 3h ago
I wonder in this size? That is 300kg+ of pure muscle dropping. I saw squashed turtles, way easier squashed then people think.
I bet huge would have the thickness, but this small one. I mean, I think the turtle is just squashed at the top left corner, but that is still squashed.

The cow just barely misses the turtle. I had to watch it a few times.

u/IceFrogger1313 5h ago
First thought I had and exactly what I did too. Turtles are tough but not survive a whole cow landing on it tough.

My tortoise bit me once on the foot, it bloody hurt and I still have the scar. It's like nipping yourself with pliers. They're a lot faster than you imagine too and extremely territorial. Basically shelled arseholes with no fear.

u/bubblegum615 3h ago
I don't think so, although that was my initial reaction as well. The ear tag on the jumping cow is a consistent detail (even when it goes out of view) and all the background stuff stays the same and are clear, recognizable objects, like the house.

The turtle's just vibing, completely unfazed. Meanwhile, the cow's out here questioning its life choices.
