>>364329Catch them with traps, not hooks. Turtles are really easy to trap, what they have in cuteness they kind of lack in intelligence, they're extremely predictable. Google it!
I get big snapping turtles at my cottage a lot. They're strong as little shelley Oxes, and have a really mean bite, but they're really cute too. We just wrangle them up and relocate them!
Save the turtles!
