Yesterday I found a baby Common Snapping Turtle in my yard. I brought him down to the swamp. He looked so happy to be back where he belongs. It was so very special to see and help the turtle!! I did call the local State Wildlife agency and they told me it was fine for me to bring him to the wetlands.

  • I would really like to see one that size. I've been around them my entire life because my grandparents have a pond but they're always the size you don't want to mess with. Considering there can be up to three in their pond at any given time it's sort of surprising that I've yet to see a little one in the wild.

  • @TheSquigg0th I was surprised at how small it was.. it was such a great feeling to help this little guy out. I got to help 2 out that summer. I will always cherish those memory's. That must be nice that your Grandparents live near a pond! Hopefully someday you will see one of these little guys! Thanks for watching and commenting!

  • is there any possible way ud be able to get 2 to me legitimately with out no BS im willing to pay

  • @mannibalector14 NO! These turtles are meant to be in the wild and its illegal to do that!

  • I found a newborn like this, still had little bits of egg shell on her and she was walking towards the road.

    I originally intended to take her to the nature center, but the cute factor got to me and I wound up keeping her. She's 2 years old now and calm / happy as can be

  • @f0r3v3rl33t Its nice to that you helped the little turtle.. what are you going to do thou once he/she gets big? I would feel bad putting it in a tank when they are meant to be free,,Just my thoughts!
