The Fly River turtle's lineage stretches back 70 million years to the Eocene period before dinosaurs became extinct. It's the last living member of the Carettochelyidae family of turtles. Fly River turtles, also known as pig-nosed turtles, use their disk-shaped snouts for snorkeling, detecting scents underwater, and locating food. Zoo guests can find this whimsical endangered species swimming in The LAIR. #WorldTurtleDay #FlyRiverTurtle #Turtle | Los Angeles Zoo
