This turtle doesn't only have a cool name, but it also looks awesome with its jagged, saw-like shell that gives it a unique look. Its shell is usually dark brown or black, and its skin can be a variety of colors from grey to olive green. And you know what's even cooler? The older they get, the more rugged their shells become.  \nFrom the sharp lines of their shells, let's dive into where these unique turtles live.
