Newt trapper N Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 5,255 Port Republic South Jersey	Originally Posted By: LT GREY People forget how much plant matter turtles that size also eat. Ask Newt. Do they eat frogs and ducks ? Sure, and fish. But they also eat a tremendous amount of plant matter too. Turtles that size, at least here, would be full of toxins, especially RIVER turtles. They wouldn't be fit to eat and I've argued that point for a very long time. Turtles that large are very old and are worth FAR MORE alive than dead. Ask a turtle farmer, which is where a large portion of snappers are sold to. Can I answer that ?

AND....if this means anything...we all missed you at the NTA this year ! Why, I over heard 'the mouse' tell a trapper she was really sorry you didn't come this year so you would have someone her own size to play with ! LOL
