The alligator trying to crack the turtles tough shell. These incr-edible pictures by Patrick Castleberry capture a real-life mutant ninja turtles hardy victory over a mighty ALLIGATOR during an exhaustive battle of brute strength. The immorturtle champion proved too much of a tough nut to crack after the 6ft chomper tried to clamp its powerful jaws around the petite reptile. The South American alligator, photographed in the Okefenokee Swamp, Georgia, spent up to 15 minutes trying to prise the turtles shell open and enjoy a quick-fix supper. But its not the size of the turtle in the fight, its the size of the fight in the turtle that counts as the Eastern River Cooters mar-shell arts earned him a life-saving victory.
