Experiences with the World’s Largest Freshwater Turtles

Hi All,

Please check out: Turtle Giants: Working with the World’s Largest Freshwater Species

Turtle enthusiasts seem always to remain interested in even the commonest species. I’ve worked with world-renowned herpetologists who keep Sliders and private breeders who care for 2,000+ turtles (not a misprint!) yet find a place for Common Snappers. I’m the same way…as I write, I’m watched by a Stinkpot that I acquired in 1969. Yet there’s no denying the allure of 4 foot-long Giant Softshells, 200+ lb. Alligator Snappers, massive Painted River Terrapins and other rare giants. Today I’d like to share some experiences I’ve been lucky enough to have had with these and others.

Comments and questions appreciated,

Thanks, Frank
