This is the hilarious moment three snapping turtles got stuck on top of each other when one of them stopped abruptlyand the two behind failed to notice.The photographs of the reptilian pile-up were taken at Haus des Meeres Aqua Terra Zoo in Vienna, Austria by 45-year-old Hans Jorg Leth。
三只烏龜排隊(duì)過(guò)獨(dú)木橋,領(lǐng)頭的烏龜突然來(lái)了一個(gè)急剎車(chē),后面的兩只烏龜沒(méi)反應(yīng)過(guò)來(lái),繼續(xù)往前走,最后紛紛“卡”在前面烏龜?shù)暮蟊成。這“過(guò)橋堵車(chē)”的有趣一幕發(fā)生在奧地利維也納的Haus des Meeres - Aqua Terra動(dòng)物園。
The retail manager, who lives in the city of Graz, said he took the comical photograph after spending an afternoon at the zoo earlier this month。

After the initial three-turtle pile up, several more lined up behind. Within just a few minutes seven turtles were left waiting patiently in line for the first turtle to get himself moving again。
在三只烏龜出現(xiàn)“交通擁堵”后不久,后續(xù)又逐一跟上來(lái)幾只烏龜。然而,因第一只烏龜始終不走,后面的烏龜只有耐心地等待著。
'There were a lot of visitors at the zoo on the day I took that picture,' Mr Leth said.'It seems that the first snapping turtle stopped to have a view of the crazy looking visitors who were staring at him... There were two other turtles walking behind him and were going too fast to stop in time,' he added. “The three turtles all landed on top of each other - it was very funny,' he went on to say。我拍照的那天動(dòng)物園有很多游客,”
漢斯先生說(shuō):“估計(jì)第一只烏龜被密密麻麻的游客嚇呆了,所以挪不開(kāi)步子。“他繼續(xù)說(shuō)道,”在它后面爬行的其他兩只烏龜又走的太快而停不下來(lái)。于是三只烏龜就趴在彼此的背上-這非常有趣。”
