I'm with you Dale for the time being, but if I start seeing more than a few common snappers at fish feeding time in my small pond we'll be having some turtle soup. This would merely be to manage the population in a 1/4 acre hole and put some unique food on the table, not necessarily to eradicate them.
The only real trouble I have heard of is snappers getting ahold of ducklings. I've never seen it with my own eyes, but can imagine it happening pretty easily.
Alligator snapping turtles are a different concern. They can actually lure fish in with their worm-like tongue and then snap up their prey. And these guys are protected in a lot of states.
Fish on!, Noel
