Hi there
Thought L. tasmaniensis however the snout looks very stout in this photo and the dark mark in front of the eyes is missing...

I am inclined to think this is a long neck turtle. GeoffR

Agree with Geoff, not a turtle

Ryu, no I think it is a turtle. Sorry I meant to say inclined not included.

Sorry, Geoff, I meant not a frog. I noticed my error when I posted but then my internet cut out so I couldn't amend it

got onto the wrong track as the person who sent me this photo specifically asked for what kind of FROG this was..
A turtle it is!!
