Original Note:
This turtle is in distress. Being stuck on the back of their shell is stressful and could cause internal injuries. The "smile" you see is the turtle trying to bite the person filming them. The animal is in a vulnerable position, it thinks it's being attacked. https://www.matts-turtles.org/handling-turtles.html#:~:text=DON'T%20keep%20a%20turtle,of%20control%2C%20vulnerable%20to%20predators.
