5 Mantis Shrimps vs Common Snapping Turtle (Real Life)

Mantis shrimps are some of the most overrated animals out there. They are described as having punches as strong as guns, but physics doesn't allow that to really happen. I won't put pictures of this here for obvious reasons, but if you want to, search up how a mantis shrimp injury looks and you'll see it's not that bad. Meanwhile, the alligator snapping turtle is very durable even when we're not looking at its shell and just needs one hit on each shrimp to kill it. It may end up injured and hurt, but will most definitely win.

For the injury part i think its because of different mantis shrimps. I saw some injury only breaking the skin but theres also a researcher whose finger got broken by a punch

Yea bro, no way the manti shrimps will take on the entire turtle, they are the definition of "High AP, low potential destruction" the turtle will tank most of the damage thanks to It's size and durable armour is too much for the Mantis shrimps to actually do significant damage, I don't even think there is a chance for the manti shrimps to win here, may be a stomp
 
I'm guessing this one could make for a fairer fight:

yeah that one
 
Maybe an animal from an entirely different time period could make for a fair fight. Personally, something from the Paleozoic period seems best, since turtles are all very durable and resistant to damages, and the animals from the Paleozoic are almost all animals who could easily kill a single mantis shrimp, but could potentially be overwhelmed by five of them. Either that or a fish, because those small to medium-sized fish could make for a fair fight too.
