Most likely laying eggs, though sometimes they move from somewhere else. Wild ones sure have that short fuse, but I have raised them from hatchlings and released when too big, about 3 years later, docile, peaceful animals, wild ones got into defense mode easily, the hand raised ones do not, well unless you step on him or something. They have a keen sense of smell and are lightning fast when something resembling food passes near them, other than that, they really don't do much except clean up dead carcasses in the water, and they do take waterfowl under. Ironically, all of the ones I have raised, (hobby) would gently take food from your hand, and if they get your finger, they know the difference. The worst thing besides an angry wild one, is the odor from the liquid they secrete from the sides of the carapace or plastron, hand raised ones just don't get angry unless you do something mean to them. So many people treat these guys with disrespect and abuse em cause they get so pi$$ed when disturbed, they are fun to watch in a clear pond, I worked in a quarry that draglined out a huge pond, crystal clear water with big ole bass and manhole cover size common snappers, from the stock pile, it was like looking into an aquarium.
