Great advice to help our snapping turtle friends.

Let’s get talk about some myths about our Ontario local common snapping turtle

Perpetuating myths about their ‘aggression’ can further put this species down the road to extinction as it prevents people from helping them.

Let’s set some things straight - yes they are intimidating to help and if you are not comfortable or it is not safe you should prioritize your self. However, with a little knowledge you can easily stay safe and help these living dinosaurs.
