Alligator snapping turtles (Macrochelys temminckii) are native to the southeastern United States but have been reported in Kansas, primarily in the southeastern part of the state. They are the largest freshwater turtles in North America, known for their distinctive, rugged shells and powerful jaws. While not common in Kansas, their presence may be due to accidental introductions or localized populations. Conservation efforts are important to protect this species, which faces threats from habitat loss and overharvesting.
