Guessing Game



Anyone know what this fine creature is? (I've made the photo black and white to add mystery!)

Incidentally: Is that a great expression on its face or what?

{A note: I do write all text and take all pictures. Please do not reproduce either without my permission.}

Assuming it's native to North America, I have a guess. But, not after looking up a MUCH larger Chinese native. Phew! However, I'll wait, so as to share & share alike. =)

And black and white is a brilliant choice.

Nope. (But I think it's looking at me.)

I'll live dangerously: it looks like a snake, but I'll hazard a turtle or tortoise.

I think biobabbler knew it! It's a Hellbender, an enormous North American salamander (although, as biobabbler observed, its Chinese cousins are waaay bigger). You can learn more about them here, at the entertainingly named Hellbender Homepage: http://www.hellbenders.org/The_Hellbender_Homepage/Home.html
