To catch their next meal, some turtles have developped a very clever (and surprisingly efficient) thechnique: they hide themselves in aquatic plants, with just the head a bit uncovered. Then they open their mouth, pull out and slightly shake their tong. Fishes that pass by believe the tong is a worm or a larva, and as they catch it, the turtle only has to close his mouth and the "fishing" job is done. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
