I live in swamps and other fresh water
I am strictly an herbivore, I never eat fish
Plants are the only thing that I will slaughter*
*As described in the link below, humans are one of the Peninsular Cooter's predators. Fishermen are known to shoot Cooters on the mistaken belief that turtles kill and eat game fish.
