Recently I went to a local store and they were with a tv station and some wildlife officer.they were measuring and weighing a large alligator snapping turtle.I was wondering how many other large ones were being kept by individuals and size and weight?this ones name is "Pee Wee" and was weighed in at 184 lbs and a few oz,the pic shows a silver dollar on his back.just thought youd like to see.

Thanks for sharing. Nice turtle. I might reconsider getting a male and go for the female. My scronny butt couldn't never be cable of lifting an adult male. And again nice turtle.
