World’s Nicest SNAPPING TURTLE

[@EdThePondProfessor]

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

[@thnkx]

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.

[@crunchinfo]

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

Yessss❤❤❤

[@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951]

Snappy is one cool turtle. That is a fantastic home you made for him.

[@EdThePondProfessor]

He’s Incredible!!! & Thanks…..

[@stinkfist911]

He looks so happy.

[@marsfeathers]

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]

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.

[@turtlejeepjen314]

the world’s most under rated animal species.💚💚

[@HELENGodLoves]

THANK you so much for sharing Snappy and his fantastic family and friends!! You and your team are outstanding!!!✌️❤️🙏

[@geriwarrick5108]

Snapping turtles raised as pets for me, I never was bit. Kids were killing the babies and I found one left and raised it till it was big enough to released. These pr ehistoric animals deserve the respect

[@Hemp1972]

That's one snapper! Wow! 🔆

[@EdThePondProfessor]

The Best!!!

[@roberthunerberg1509]

Snappy is a really special turtle 🐢 now he's got a great new home!!! The Hotel Snappy 🏨

[@mrpoolplayer6379]

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...

[@davidgonynor2870]

Your a beautiful and loved 🐢 turtle snappy..❤❤❤❤

[@marsfeathers]

I really liked how you explained how warm blooded animals consuming so much energy also has other affects!! I was just thinking about it the other day, it's nice to hear it articulated so well. Awesome video and I love snappy :D

[@staceyroberts3468]

Y’all have such an incredible company and have created so many eco systems I enjoy seeing on other channels too. It’s always beautiful and interesting!!

[@thesnapperkeeper]

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

[@bdog4u2]

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]

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

[@berjaboy]

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.

[@thesnapperkeeper]

[@Guarddog83]

Mine is the same way. It is true.

[@SIyMarbo]

look up Gizmo he is a friendly Snapping turtle and Gizmo acts more like a dog than a turtle its funny

[@kreozello]

@@SIyMarbo friendly snapping turtle sounds like 'giant enemy spider' but actually it's friendly. (P.s. ty, I'll look up. I think I've seen Gizmo once)

[@zozocecp]

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

[@Mikeanglo]

I had no idea these guys could be this well socialized. Reptiles continue to surprise me.

[@Poseidonponds]

Very cool setup! Loved all the educational information on Snappy and the habitat.

[@EdThePondProfessor]

Thanks for watching!!! 🙏🙏🙏

What a amazing animal. As always Ed thanks for sharing this video. Lone live Snappy!!!!😊

[@timtruelove7214]

Had one as a kid about 3-4 inches wide that wouldn’t bite anything but food the clutch mate would occasionally snap at you through the tank

Snappy's a real homie

[@pondparadisedesignsinc.rob5313]

That’s incredible. Another amazing project by the Ed master. I’ve never seen that before so tame but I would still be careful please that snapper can do some damage if you wanted to.

[@crunchinfo]

So glad I was part of this build. Ed's eye for the natural details is unmatched.

[@EdThePondProfessor]

Thanks Rusty!!! Looking forward to assisting you on your pond…..

[@EdThePondProfessor]

Thanks Bud!!! Even though I knew Snappy wouldn’t hurt me it was always in the back of my mind…..

[@Philkoehler4]

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

[@hockeynmma1992]

Such an awesome indoor setup!! I’ve got 2 small Sulcata tortoises. When they get bigger im going to build them a large enclosure outside in my front yard. I’ve been thinking of getting some common or gator snappers and building something in my backyard.

[@billbooks2891]

I love that he doesn't bite

[@SnapperCorral-dc1xf]

My first thought when placing Snappy into that beautiful pond was... "Does anyone have a giant turkey baster?"

[@ofthedawn]

Is his shell curling?

[@chuckwalla325]

Does he have a UVB source ?

[@jannaj2719]

Snappy was meant for you and you were meant for him . He is a wonderful boy. My kids will get my box turtle.

[@jennyatherton3820]

What. Awesome turtle

[@turtlejeepjen314]

Sorry, I have the world’s nicest Snapping turtle.😌 BUT Snappy here looks like he is the most gentle soul of any Snapper.🥰

[@mikeshoemaker1909]

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.

[@FuzzyColors2012]

It’d be believable if the turtle was nice to his owner but the fact he lets anyone touch him is incredibly

[@rustyshaklford5954]

That's really cool man I bet he's truly a life long pet hell he might outlive his owner

[@katielady873]

He’s so cute

[@mikeshoemaker1909]

I would pick up small sliders and this big turtle would come to defend the small other types. It is obviously capable of love

He kinda looks like a big, reptilian basset hound. I'd love to meet a snapper like that. The wild examples I've encountered seemed rather indifferent to my presence, but I didn't attempt to pet them, or anything.

[@thehabeeeeeb]

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

[@MunkyDrag0n]

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.

[@clol6049]
