Why do turtles lay their eggs on the shore and not anywhere else?

Because the eggs need to be in a place far enough away from water so the eggs can develop, yet close enough for the young turtles to return to the sea once they hatch. If they were laid far inland, there would be more opportunities for predators to pick off the young as they made their way to the water.

Can snapping turtles swim?

I would not reccommend swimming with the snapping turtles. You can safely swim in a pond or river that has snapping turtles living in it.
