Or rather why are there so many?
I've been removing fish with a a Fyke net in an .8 acre pond since Monday morning. I'm checking the net every 24 hr. The first check, there were 4 snapping turtles in the net, each roughly 20#. How they were able to fit thru the 6" throat sections, I have no idea. They were 11"-12" wide and 14"-16" long. On each subsequent day I have caught one more, although a bit smaller, one @ 10# and another at 15#.
I removed the turtles from the pond, so I'm not catching the same ones. Why are there so many in the pond, and how many is too many?
