Beefy snapping turtle affectionately named Chonkosaurus becomes a celebrity¹

Video captured the turtle relaxing in the Chicago River, and it was suggested she might want to lose some weight. A wildlife biologist says the turtle looks big because it's probably loaded with eggs.

A MART?NEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martínez. Joey Santore and his friend Al were kayaking on the Chicago River when they saw a very robust-looking snapping turtle relaxing on a bed of chains.

(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)

JOEY SANTORE: You look good. I'm real proud of you. You've been eating healthy. You ever heard of liquid salad? We've been doing that. Al does that.

MART?NEZ: Diet advice aside, wildlife biologist Chris Anchor says the turtle looked like it's eating healthy because it's probably loaded with eggs. So, Joey and Al, take that liquid salad back up the river if you know what's good for you. It's MORNING EDITION.
