Can you sell it? I saw turtle shells bring $20 each at the ITA sale.

I don't know, I turned it loose. It didn't appear to be injured and kinda lumbered off.

When I catch a snapper around here beaver trapping it's way to warm out.

He looks like he wants you to rub his belly....

They like it when you rub their necks.

Over the past week while trying to otter trap, I have caught one snapper and 2 monster red-eared sliders. All the buckets were submerged with 220s in them. All 3 swam off. Turtles are tough.

That rascal would have a one way ticket to the black pot for a date with sauce piquante.

60 degrees today. I rolled him over to loosen the snare so I could turn him loose.

This mink had the worst case of mange I've ever seen. I ate him anyway.

I think a couple 220s as part of your survival gear would be a plus on "alone".

I caught a very large snapper in a 330 in November one year. He was one unhappy camper and that long neck made the release rather exciting.

Yea, that's why he's on his back.
