Today we are back at Bill Martinson's place to finish up the new home for his famous Common Snapping Turtle, Snappy. This new home is designed to allow him to thrive in an ecosystem that will make him very happy for years. Bill and Snappy's friendship goes back over 30 years now! Unlike other common snapping turtles that you should never attempt to touch, with Snappy, you can pet him as much as you'd like, which makes him one of a kind.

Do you think Snappys new home will give him a better quality of life?

@thnkx Год назад

It sure will! Happy, and healthy. I cannot believe how friendly he is! A one of a kind snapping turtle that deserves the good life.

The natural biological balance will definatley add to his life quality. So glad I could be part of this major improvement.

Man, I can totally understand how easy it is to fall in love with snappy. Near the end of your talk he had turned around and was looking right into his humans eyes... There's a different kind of intelligence about reptiles but it's no less than for animals we have an easier time relating to. Just amazing stuff :))

@Hyptosis 2 месяца назад

I agree, there is a lack of worry and an acceptance of 'this is how it is' i see in reptile eyes a lot. It's like, a ignorant is bliss mixed with wisdom vibe to me.

Haha it’s kind of crazy, my boyfriend’s sister’s boyfriend (really didn’t know how to word that) had a pet snapping turtle that was so chill. He’d take it out the tank and just let it walk around the house! Never bothered anyone and would even let you pet it. Even at parties with unfamiliar people it would just be chillin

@thesnapperkeeper Год назад

There are other friendly snappers like Gizmo,Tank and my girl Spot.They’re incredibly intelligent creatures

@bdog4u2 Год назад

Yup. My girl is laid-back as well. Get them small and handle them a lot and most will trust you. Mine will be going into her pond when it warms up.

@henryjunghans3202 7 месяцев назад

Unfortunately their general genetic disposition seems to be semi friendly, even though they are efficient killing machines. 😊

@berjaboy 6 месяцев назад

Are they really smart? Seriously, I never had a Turtle, so I really have no idea of their intelligence. But I've heard people say that some turtles are smart. How? Do they know their names, do they know their owner, can they show affection, do they show emotions? I'm curious.

Outstanding, I'm glad Snappy has a great life. I just pulled on off the highway , just a few days ago, pushing him across the street , got is ire up, but he's still alive & that was the goal. He was about 10 inches long, biggest one I've ever seen & he had the moves... I'm too old for another pet... I just turned 81, can't hardly get around...

I have a pet common snapping turtle, shes a female and shea almost 4, each winter even though i have her inside she still goes into that hibernation type mode...is this normal? Does snappy go into that hibernatint mode?..she hasent broke out of that mode yet this year yet but she has not ate anything since december.....i know thats normal for them but its worries me...its always about 65 to 70 in my house, why does she still go into that hibernation mode

@kimberlyryan8618 20 часов назад

I thought you were going to let him stay outside so he can hybernate according to his natural rhythms. The amount of moisture that huge pond is created in that garage is going to cause mold to grow on the drywall! That will kill! I am suffering from mold exposure from a 16 year employment in a nursing home with a leaking roof! It had all the usual ventilation systems too! Staff were always reassured that there was not a mold problem. But my exposure to it exceeded my body's ability to detox it and now i am forced into early retirement and the administration still denies mold problems in that building!

@thehabeeeeeb 10 месяцев назад

Is there a reason why he doesn't snap? Like an injury or something?

@MunkyDrag0n 9 месяцев назад

No, i think it legitimately doesn't want to. Snapping turtles may only snap for food or self defense. This one has no fear of humans and in the video they explain it is just getting active. Cold blooded animals need heat to gradually get active and to digest. So, it has no fear of humans, it is just waking up, and it isn't hungry. No need to spend any energy snapping.

I have a ten acre stream/ pond and one came up on my land. I ran down to catch it and it got up and ran.on two legs opposing front left rear right then opposite. It's cleared rip rap rocks and launched itself. It was moving. Don't think they are slow or you will get surprised and their bite is super fast can stick that neck out like a snake strike.
