If a snapping turtle bites you it won't let go until it thunders.

not really...never liked their burgers, probably the square shape. and last time i had a spicy chicken sandwich, the bun smelled like the worker rubbed it under their armpit before dressing it. Never went back, that was 6 or 7 years ago.

I have a cousin who lost 2 fingers on two different noodling trips. He always says there is 10 snapping turtle lifetime limit for noodlers.

How does this happen? Snapping turtles are no joke. I'd rather a non venomous snake bite the piss out of me several times than get bit by a snapping turtle. I got bit by a baby snapping turn when I was a kid and that shite hurts.. A lot.

This is very weird.

The odds of a turtle biting off someones finger, and that then that turtle being caught by someone before the turtle digests it, and then person that caught it gutting it in such a way that they discover a finger within its stomach contents.

I’ve found that turtles taste like turtle. Alligator taste like alligator. Can’t beat a thick pork chop that taste like pig.

Deputies contacted the parish coroner's office and took possession of the finger in hopes of identifying who it came from.

No fingerprint has been obtained from the finger


They don't really give a shite about identifying it if they did not take the first, and most obvious, step.
