...alarming problem in an established pond (approx) 5000 Gallons,
Located in East Tennesse, During extreme dry season, we have
had several snapping turtles occupy our pond. Is there any
possible prevention or way to deal with them after arrival?
Thank you so much for your assistance Jay
Hi Jay,
Oh great. Another apex predator. Get
some help from your local Forestry Service or Animal Control
Rep,
trap 'em and transport 'em out. They'll rip your fish to
shreds and if you aren't experienced in handling them, they'll
tear you up too!
Oh well. It could be worse. It could
have been alligators.
Or hippos.
