I loved working with so many turtle enthusiasts to help better these turtle’s lives. Did you see any of your favorite influencers in this vlog? Or Do you follow any of my friends on their KZbin channels?

[@reptilemetaljen]

Loooove Greg’s Turtle Haven! He’s the man lol excellent video!

[@beverlyjensen443]

Yes, I did. Yes, I do! PS...so many are tickled pink with what you and Greg have done to their places!

[@ptek69]

Little known fact, we have an entire population of Alligator snapping turtles living in the glencoe swamps in Ontario Canada. Confirmed by University of Western Ontario if anyone thinks im bull💩ing. Pretty cool to see an endangered species living well outside its typical range

[@PonderingWaters]

I'm so glad I went to be a part of this great cause. I learned so much from everyone there. It was awesome doing this with friends and meeting new ones. Another once in a lifetime experiences in the books.

[@EdThePondProfessor]

I agree!!! Looking forward to our next Adventure…..

[@crunchinfo]

This is the top most, inspiring thing I've done in my life. What a TEAM that came together and what an acomplishment for the turtles of my passion!

[@GregsTurtleHaven]

Great job assembling, Rusty!

[@crunchinfo]

@@GregsTurtleHaven Im so glad we finnaly worked together. Glad you brought those you power houses too!

[@jackthompson6375]

[@EdThePondProfessor]

It was Incredible!!! Thanks for including us in this Amazing Event…..

[@pryme2013]

That new pond looked really small for all of those old dinosaurs.

[@mattgulisano7428]

Like cleaning out a massive turtle outhouse, but if your happy I'm happy to watch. Thanks to everyone involved.

[@EdThePondProfessor]

[@UnofficialWeatherMan]

Np, videos are amazing, Keep up the good work man.

[@BrentStAmant]

They were definitely way too many of the big males in that pond and I’m glad he got plenty of help to get things done 👍

[@imdbtruth]

Turtles and tortoises are really amazing creatures. I feel like they're somewhat underrated by the animal loving community as a whole.

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

These are turtles and a half. Cool looking.

[@crunchinfo]

There were some giants in there that needed our help. Im so grateful for a team of passionate people we were able to gather for this.

[@beaujohnson2021]

I LIKE TURTLES.

[@richardhincemon]

[@dnico]

AMAZING WOW ✨✨✨✨✨✨ I LOVE TURTLES🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢ALIGATOR SNPPING TURTLES ARE STUNNING TURTLES/DINOSAURS ✨✨ AMAZING JOB ED AND CREW

[@makewithmegma]

🔥💕👍

[@tobyrock7194]

The new pond looks alot smaller..

[@EdThePondProfessor]

The turtles were removed from one large pond and distributed into several new ponds

[@slavicunited1268]

Makes me anxious cuz it feels like he can bite anyone of them at any time

[@glennusher4160]

So funny how theyre are so tiny as babies.. And then they grow up into giants.. I love how they always keep their mouths open, just waiting to bite someone.,.

[@CallintheGUNSHIP]

I like turtles 🧟‍♂️

[@EdThePondProfessor]

Me too!

[@karmathegiant]

Ok I watched the whole video, however I still don’t understand why these magnificent animals are being kept and bred in captivity. I understand you put them in a cleaner area, but are the being bred for sale? Please explain.

[@chet174able]

You call that a home for a wild animal that owns it territory

[@Poseidonponds]

Such a cool looking experience. Did that mud dry out your hands? How many total turtles were removed?

[@EdThePondProfessor]

It was Awesome!!! The mud was on everything!!!

[@nicholasbence7536]

How do I get involved in a turtle based life. I absolutely love them and tortoises.

[@dwal3486]

so many instances people could have lost their jaw in the first 2.5 min.

[@DD-tf5fq]

Could you imagen, a tour guide/ or bodyguard. First called Simon “I’m unawhere what happened, my foot was stuck.” David “humiliated forest densities, gps location, bears, wild boar, hunting, wasps, snakes , frogs. Fungus hallucinate. “Son it’s not wise to fish here, you must mind your step”. Could you imagine how you’d fell if you were told “Because we can” I know bit random A,I brain fart and nature lol. God bless

[@JamesKing2understandinglife]

I see no juvinile turtles! Improving the area where they can reproduce is a good idea. Big turtles eat little turtles. They should be kept seperate to prevent this.

[@Lootensansy2308]

Are you rebuilding the place. Because the turtles the home is garbage the don't even good water Swim in

[@MikeySkywalker]

Snapping Turtles don’t want clear water. They hate it. They want murky water. That’s why they were all gathered in a mud hole. That place is like a dream for them.
