What do soft-shelled turtles eat?

The soft-shelled turtle is an omnivorous animal that mainly feeds on animal-based food. It mainly eats small fish and shrimp, earthworms, animal offal, fly maggots, snail and mussel meat, and rat meat, and also consumes some plant-based foods such as melons and vegetables and wheat grains. The soft-shelled turtle's staple foods are river snails and small fish and shrimp. The soft-shelled turtle only has tooth plates like those of a baby, and has no teeth. The way the soft-shelled turtle looks for food is: it chooses a shore with river snails and small fish and shrimp, hides its body under the mud and sand without moving, and waits idly for prey. Once a river snail, small fish, or small shrimp passes by its side, the soft-shelled turtle will, with tremendous force, suck the river snail or small fish or small shrimp into its mouth and swallow it directly!
