I was fishing awhile back at a pond, and this kid caught a snapping turtle. He proceeded to torture this turtle trying to get his hook out. Well, I got kinda pissed and told him to kill it or cut his line. He decided to cut his head off and laugh loudly while pointing his finger at its head. well, you prolly know the rest of the story. It latched on to his finger and he let out with this little girl scream. I couldnt do anything but laugh at a fool with a snapping turtles head on his finger running in circles shaking his hand. I rekon he got what was coming to him. Some people will just never learn.

From Kathy and Bill Love’s book:

Quote:

Cutting off the head does not immediately stop brain activity



Well I guess this proves there point.

The guy got what was coming to him.

This isn’t new news really. I know not many of you have killed snakes, but I have had to witness it quite a lot sadly...anyway, a killed snake still moves and bites, my grandfather was once bitten by a dead ratsnake.

They should have laws against that sort of thing. People make a big fuss about "protecting" the endangered species (Massasuaga, Bushmaster, etc) but everyday species that aren’t considered endangered are getting killed because there in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Even then some endangered species are getting killed regardless of their status.
