Carbonemys, a giant turtle

Found in Cerrejón, it is the earliest example of gigantism among freshwater turtles. Interestingly, its massive jaws suggest it could eat anything it wanted. But I feel really bad for the little crocodile in the pic :S http://www.sci-news.com/paleontology/article00324.html
