He was really that big! My Son had to use his welding gloves to pick him up and he was snapping all over the place. After I took the hot dog pic, the turtle snapped at it. He made a very loud snapping noise as his mouth closed! Hubby and I have a habit of picking turtles up off the road too, but we have never come across one this big!
