The alligator snapping turtle is the largest freshwater turtle species in North America. Join Kevin Enge and Travis Thomas, biologists with the FWC Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, as they conduct a study that will determine the turtle's population status, movements, and home range size in the Suwannee River.

  4. im watching this beacause i have a project
  5. I bet those things are tasty.
  6. how about raising the alligator snappers and speed up the number available?? studies are wonderful, but a hackery would be better! or give private owners or breeders permits to raise them?? there are a lots of ponds around where breeding could be done without anyone even knowing it. think about it, and lets have some more tuttles in florida!!
  7. Finally, a video where they don't kill the animals they find.
  8. Kevin Enge: Let me know if you want to work with me on finishing my study I started there in 1990. I'm sure Paul would like to help. I've have 30 nets. If we had the right supply of bait two weeks trapping should wrap up the study, be a nice addition to what you're working on. You'd have data from nearly 20 years of growth and you'd have movement as well. I've got a lot of movement and home range data. One captured 4 years at same stump, one big adult moved 1.5 mi. downstream over night.
