Both Snapping turtle species due to loss of habitat have been spreading there ranges down around the Gulf of Mexico and into northern South America. I don't believe they have made it as far into the interior as the amazon as of yet but its only a matter of time. They are no strangers to the oceans and have been found over 100 miles out to sea. Being so adaptable only means their spreading is bound to happen.
