How to prevent/deal with a snapping turtle?

[neo71665]

Deep fried snapping turtle is really good. It's tough, and visually, the texture looks like pot roast when it starts to shred apart, but when you chew it, pot roast is not what comes to mind. It gives your jaw a workout, but is quite tasty. Not fishy like I expected. No, it does not taste like chicken.

Reminds me more of wild rabbit.
Fried is my fav method of eating it. Heck I have 3 in the freezer right now.

Yup, that would be the texture. Jealous of your bounty.

Four farm ponds on my property. I give away more wildlife than I keep due to not having enough freezer space.
