Title: Click here if you wanna see my Snapper
Post by: Rob'in'To on April 19, 2013, 12:01:05 PM

Maybe that subject line was a little inappropriate  :?: but hey, if it got your attention, and a laugh, what the heck.

I thought it was just one Snapping Turtle.

But then it turned out to be two, and they were mating.

After a few minutes of viewing from the shore, I got the look here from both of them.  And moved on with my journey.   :oops:

Due to the fact that poaching still exists, and these are a threatened species, I will not say where this prehistoric couple were seen.
