The big snapping turtle that has been menacing the duck pond all summer was caught. The neighbors saw it near the bank and caught it with a net.
And the turtle is no more! Snapping turtles are legal in West Virginia now, and they aren’t even remotely endangered.
The ducks won’t be afraid to go into the water anymore.
Eat the blighter!
Couldn’t it be relocated or is it considered a delicacy in your region?
It’s a commonly eaten turtle all over the Eastern states. It’s about the only one that is eaten like this.
