The title is deliberately written to sound like a new species was discovered. That is not even close to what happened. An alligator snapping turtle was found in England, outside of its natural habitat. I’m going to guess it was someone’s exotic pet or something (not sure on the legality of export/import).

Trash, clickbait article.

Exotic? Not in the US. Vicious? Oh fuck yes.

The biting through bone thing is completely irrelevant. Just click bait garbage.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A dangerous turtle capable of biting through bones has been found in a tarn in Cumbria.

An alligator snapping turtle, which is usually found in swamps and freshwater rivers in Florida, Texas and other southern parts of the United States, are known to have extremely powerful jaws.

The creature was spotted by Great Urswick residents in the tarn – which is a small lake – on the edge of the village.

After it was identified, parish councillor Denise Chamberlain took it to Wild Side Vets in Barrow.

The animals are known for their stocky armoured carapcae, which gives them a prehistoric appearance that often draws comparisons to dinosaurs.

Unlike other species of snapping turtles, their eyes are located on the sides of their head rather than their front, while their tails are long and thick.
