1. who would sit in little kyack with a big snapper still alive??? lol
2. Watched!
3. So coyote, there's a creek behind my church that is like 4-5 inches deep. Could I find a snapping Turtle in it. FWI it's very murky.
4. dude u are insane and my hero
5. there are snapping turtles in the pond behind my house and they sometimes walk around in my yard
6. hhffhh
7. this is so upsetting
8. I spent my entire childhood in central Mississippi catching Red Eared and Yellow Bellied Sliders (as a hobby, not for meat or pet trade). Boy, did we catch some big ones. I also worked on a captive aquatic turtle farm as a pre-teen. My worst encounters came from common snappers and alligator snappers... and yes, I've been bitten quite a few times.
   
   But let me just say, after all of my years of experience with handling turtles, I still don't have the cajones to jump into a river after a snapper that size! I know it's an older video, but very nicely done. Coyote, you ought to check out some of the snappers in the Pearl River... those are some of the biggest ones I've ever seen.
9. Try to catch horse shoe crabs
10. best episodes ever. When I found you you where stung by fire ants. Keep up with the work. And i'll see you in your adventure. I also want to be you!
11. This video made me laugh so hard with the snapping turtle just jumping out
12. I don't care if that is a mean ole turtle, cause that turtle is the cutest thing ever
13. whats that show when this dude takes pest or anything thats not good for them or bothering other people and i remember he got a snapping turtle a raccoon and rats
14. Cornelius wanted to have none of that, haha! "You ain't keeping me on this flimsy boat!" Before I came upon this series I had no idea how fast these turtles can be when they feel threatened/use their explosive strength. But seeing as the common snapper is an active nomadic predator, that makes sense.
    
    Which species has the faster explosive reaction in your experience ?  If we're talking similar sizes(say a 40-pound common snapper vs a 40-pound alligator snapper for example). I'm betting the common snapper, but would be interesting to hear an expert's take on it.
15. How many babies can snapping turtles have at one time and if the can have have quite a few, would the babies be aggressive to each other, can only one survive?
16. Hai Coyote. I have a question I would like to be in one of your Friday questions. Maybe 2 questions...so the first question is what is the worst bite or nip you took from a animal while RECORDING? And my second question is what is the worst bite or nip you took from a animal your whole life so far and it can be a bite or a sting or a nip you took while NOT recording. So bye and I hope I make it in the Friday episode and I am a subscriber. I subbed yesterday night and I love your videos
17. Lol
18. Lots of repeat footage lately. Just sayin'  :)
19. You deserve one quadrillion subscribers
20. Wait what's the white whale
