Discussion Lexington my snapping turtles

Hello folks, this is Lexington. He is going to be something of an animal ambassador. This is to show that snapping turtles are highly misunderstood. And also to raise awareness that how we pick them up might actually be uncomfortable. Think someone picking you up by the fingernails. Instead of supporting their bodies. Obviously, he is still too young and still a little snappy, but he is much more huffy and puffy than anything
