      Two snapping turtles are better than one! Thanks for all the help filming them!

    the ones without the knobbs are the more aggressive but im sure im preaching to the choir

      This is good information to know though! Snapping turtles are so fun to catch- the aggressive ones are the most fun!

    there is one in north springfield reservoir vt not to be confused with the north Springfield dam thats big enough to ride, first siting was people on 4 wheelers crossing a brook and parked on it by accident and it moved, i/we saw it during the summer swimming their i would have to guess its 500lbs

    Prehistoric 🦕 I wonder how old that was? You are crazy for walking around barefoot there! Those things look like they could take some toes off. No more leaches plz

      I wonder the same thing. I’m sure this dinosaur has been roaming this secret pond for many years. Haha bare foot is the best way to feel for them. Spoiler alert: I got leeches on my lips while snorkeling… just wait for that video!

    you dont wanna grab it by the tail and pick up also because it can and will reach all the way back and get you but more than likely in the legs but it can reach its tall and grab your arm and wrist this isn't speculation lol , i have a mad man friend tha will dive into the water and grab them by the tail. i understand how bad this is i dont tent to handle them . i have ridden one twice the size of this one ... not voluntarily but that what you get jumping into the swamp and crossing it. thought it wa a log..hahaha

      Haha great points on how to hold them. I think it also messes up their spine when you hold them by the tail. I would have loved to see the one that was as big as a log!!!
