I had two colleagues who trapped for turtles for 2.5 years with the help of locals who reportedly knew how to find them. I believe they only caught a half dozen alligator snapping turtles in that time frame.
So either the locals didn't really know how to find them, or there aren't that many out there.
But that is besides the point.

quote:I don't know where they were but I can catch six easily. Recently I had one net with 3 in it. Released them all cause they were smaller than my cut off but the fact they were < 25 lbs says they're thriving; otherwise there would be no youngens. One was less than 10 lbs.
