I Wonder If They Bite When They Are Little…

@4meAndyou anyone else’s fingers you have in mind? I might like one in my purse to teach a pick-pocket a good lesson. 😂

@4meAndyou hold up a toothpick in front of him and see if he can snap that. I bet he could.

@cherokeepatti Oddly cute. Years ago there was a huge one wandering along side the building in our company parking lot. It took two of us to carefully move it to a pond area about 1/4 mile away without getting bit. We were certain that was his home area.

@Gibbon I don’t know about snapping turtles but others will go roaming during mating season and the females will go back to where they themselves were hatched to lay and bury their eggs.

I hope it wasn’t a farm pond. My friend’s friend had a little farm and was finding the calves dead with a chunk of their nose gone. They’d put their face down in the pond water to get a drink and a snapping turtle would bite it and then they’d get infection and die. My friend’s husband helped shoot some of the turtles for the woman.

@cherokeepatti No this was a large business park. Several pond areas with shade trees ducks and geese.
