- Join me on a little walk in a cow pasture and stream as I search for a snapping turtle to catch. I find a nice big one in the mud and call him Stubby. I'll also show you how to pick them up and how to NOT pick them up.

I love snappers. So prehistoric, like a croc. Good for you to make this video highlighting how to pick them up safely.
Don't pick em up at all, no reason, they're smart and will trick you
HighStreet Killers no they won’t
So you can’t admit that a turtle might be able to outsmart you
Snapping turtles never went extinct?
Prehistoric dosnt necessarily mean their extinct
Snapping turtles are my favorite animal! One time I was creek walking and saw one the size of a barrel walking under the water. It was the most beautiful, amazing moment ever. It felt like I was looking at a dinosaur.
+Rae I saw the same one. I fed my family with it.
what turtle is not an animal bicth you need to check your school book cuz they're ripped you dumb fuck
Darel Denton turtle are animals you dumb shit wait till you learn about animals you dicktard
ReptiliAddicted what is it then 🤔😳
ReptiliAddicted a ghost ??
'hey buddy, I'm not gonna hurt ya'...
pokes a stick into his face
He was true to his word the stick annoyed not hurt
LOL
Hahahaha
he didnt poke it though, he rubbed it on the top of the head to remove some mud..
@@sunnzo2467 he's talking about 8:00
What the hell am I doing here? I have an essay to write. There aren't even any snapping turtles in my country.
You must be an animal lover.
lmao I was watching anime and then ...
horseygurl143 "animal over"
Ha this UA-camr think's that a cow can drown him lol😂😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😹😹😆😹😹😹😹😆😆😆😅😂😅😆😆😅
Simon Lea well ya if it steps on you
"I can feel turtles"
+Cold Spectres At least is doesn't use derogatory terms that make you look like an idiot.
***** Idiot.
He knows what he is doing
A wild squirtle appeared!
I heard the music as soon as I read your comment 🤣
More like a blastoise!
You are super respectful towards the animals and I really appreciate that
Also to add, pick them up by grabbing both the top and bottom parts of the carapace, just like Beau did. The turtle's backbone is fused to the top shell and if you only lift it up by the top shell it can fatally injure a turtle, especially a heavier species like a snapper.
I hear the best way is to pick em up by the tail!
Caught many, many snapping turtles through the years. You can pick em up any way you want, not gonna hurt em. They're tanks. Just watch the head, they can reach almost to the middle of their backs. Good eating too.
@@retiredshitposter1062 Well you are true to true your handle, Shitposter
KJ plenty of ways to hurt a turrtle when picking it up. Especially if it’s bigger. You wonder why people don’t hold puppies up by the tail?
It may end up being soup as all mine do, but food deserves proper care and handling.
Basically pick them up like how you would with a burger.

Games Lega Lol.
😂😍
Thats a funny offhandedly retort
That guy's a giant! And believe me, I know. I catch snapping turtles everyday in the local ponds and streams in my town! Good job for teaching people not to pick them up by the tail! It drives me nuts when I see videos on Instagram of people doing that!
Bloody hell they're well hidden from predators, would never know they were there.
Exactly I was thinking the same thing you might be walking in the water and you never know that you're stepping on them until they move or either you get injured
What predators?
So cool. This animal has been around since the time of the dinosaurs and we are fortunate to live among them and learn about them today. Thanks for sharing!!!
You should do a video on the best ways to protect yourself from being drowned by cows.
+Bill Wiltfong Full Auto SCAR 17 SBR.
Hold your breath cause once their on yah they staying for awhile.
All I can think about is someone getting their toes snapped off lol
Missphotogenic Baby me to!
They cant. Common snappers can’t take any limb.
@@___and_memes_for_all what about the alligator snapping turtles
@@hydra1716 those ones have a more powerful bite that is capable of taking a limb. The thing is, they are less violent and really would only bite you if you put your hand or feet up to its mouth.
Came here for the turtles, but I stayed for the cows 😍 they're so cute!!!!
I love how respectful you are to the snapping turtle! Good on you! 🐢
Cow whisperer.... you're awesome.
LMAO. That turtle was pissed. LOL....
Very informative! Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
I love snapping turtles, and this video. I really like your careful, gentle approach to picking this guy up. I've been with people who made the mistake of picking one up by the tail - you're never supposed to, because it injures their spines. Good job!
your videos are very interesting and fun to watch keep it up!!
You are quite entertaining my friend. I grew up like Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn. I have caught a few of these nasty looking critters in my time and you truly do have to respect their jaws. Loved the interacting with Bessie the Heifer as well. Peace.
Same here. i actually brought large snapping turtles to elementary school for show-and -tell on 2 occasions. You can bet i was very popular that day.
vxy357 :D
How have I been watching Chigg for months, and I just came across this...this is pure gold...Moo.
Always picked them up by the tail, didn't know it hurt them. Thanks for the cool video!
I've seen this type of turtle in a documentary once. They can grow to be a bout ten stories tall. When they retract their limbs they can shoot fire out of he holes and fly. Fascinating creatures.
And they can do gymnastics too, with perfect form! 10's across the board!
MrDeadInMyPocket and they're friends of all children
You sir just won the Internet of the year award!
What the hell r u smoking.
Tame cows! When I was a kid I used to catch red-eared sliders. You have to hold them by the back end of their shell, too. Long necks and they bite hard. I learned the hard way (fortunately with a very small specimen). I love that you are so sympathetic with the critters you meet.
I remember chasing all the cows off the damn of a lake so I could fish there. They all ran. The bull didn't. He chased me off the damn.
Indiana Joe lmao thats great. bull does the scaring not you :D
Great info! And you're awesome for encouraging good treatment! I love getting outdoors and enjoying critters. Sometimes keeping them for a few days for me and my kids to enjoy and then returning them to their homes unharmed.
I found one in the middle of the road in the city. Very busy road and I’m surprised he made it to the middle. He was angry. I blocked traffic with my car while I tried to figure out what to put it in to transport it. He was a big one. So finally I just picked him up and put him in the passenger seat of my 300zx and took him down to a park with some swampy lakes. Fun adventure.
i like turtles
Seb Chada same
Me too I love them
Nice! I caught a big one while fishing once and my friend wanted me to *kill* *it*, cut his throat... *I* *refused!!* I took the hook off his shell and released him.
That's what awesome people do!
Number8 good job ill subscribe
you are awesome then
I let them go too.
Your friend is... not nice to animals. Yeah, I'll just say that.
Haha loved the comment about the cows 'hope they don't drown me' haha brilliant!!!
I never expected anyone to be thus cool. This guy has videos about everything.
Interesting, snapping turtles are one thing I won't mess with period.
This video had me holding my fingers he can take all four fingers off with no problem lol, loved the cows :)
Like your relaxed style! Thanks for the info.🐢 Tried to move one of these out of the road today: too vicious. Guided him to the curb.
Enjoyed watching. I used to catch snapping turtles on grandparents farm.
I kinda feel Steve irwins spirit on you good sir... just plain admiration for the animal without any intent on hurting it and for that I like you.. in fact I have my own snapper love him/her so much hehe

Love hurts sometimes. A lot.
@@blushingbunny3074 NOT COOL!! I laughed though 🤣🤣
Thank you for this video! I live by a river and usually see snappers in the road. I always want to help them cross but I was just scared to lose a finger.
Kaitlyn luke you will lose a finger with his advice...use the tail...trust.
@@BenJune09 I doubt you have ever touched one 😂 Grab the mid to rear shell and they cannot get you, I’ve done it many many times.
Very cool. When I was a child, we would swim in quarries and would come across a few nests. I also remember a snapping turtle soup.
As always, thanks’ for taking the time to make this video! And I support this site. ~M~
Yo Beau, Cool video, nice snapper.. almost as vicious as the two legged one i live with!!!! :( (sshhh dont tell her i said that!!!) cheers,G:)
freddieeatsgoldcoins You must be scared as hell in bed. LOL
Aquachigger very cool down to home video
Thanks for this video! I love turtles but snapping turtle is little creepy
Your videos were very helpful when I was deciding what GoPro to get, thanks for making them
+Lakes Reptiles Awesome you're welcome!
+MicBergsma Taste good too.Like chicken.
+joseph fulks huh?
yeah same
Thank you for the video. I also love your attitude towards animals. You are a good man.
Good eating. Ol gal brought one by the house she caught in the creek crossing her bridge. She said she would fix it it I got it cleaned. Was 10 years since I thought of them snappers, I keep a close eye out now.
There's something very freaky about a turtle that eats snakes and birds, for some reason.
StephenAndrew777 There's something very freaky about apes that massacre millions of animals every day.
Turtles eat more ducklings and fish.
@Schuneman27 Schuneman27 massherper must think that humans aren't part of the animal kingdom.. probably cries every time a lion ,or eagle kills something.
No freaky, they are just hungry.
Your house cat does the same thing I bet haha
cows are so cute
Rage Quit Hero -- they’re more delicious than they’re cute.
this is a great video, respectful of wildlife and educational
lol your videos never cease to amaze me
you live in such a beautiful state, I have to know what state your in
What county was it shot in
+MrJakeyshadow he said west virginia(wv)
+Aquachigger will you every give us specific locations because I would love to look around
It looks like this in pennsylvania
Wow I live in Florida. I love my beaches but this is really beautiful
He forgot to say if you find a dead one; It's okay to pick that one up by the tail.
Great video! I always enjoy your non digging videos... But don't stop your normal ones I love them too
Cool video Beau! Love the detecting videos. I'm a detectorist out west and its great to see how much history you find!
Got it. ALWAYS pick up turtles by the tail.
I love beef... But cows are so cute... I wish I was a psychopath, everything would be so simple
What?
Moooooo
+IT'S TIME TO STOP I dont get it..... r u a cow or a bull?
richard bartle I'm a velociraptor.
I agree
Good video! I like how you're careful how you pick them up to not injure them.
I like this Guy! super informative! His video delivered on it's title!
Nice vid man. I hate seeing people pick up snapping turtles by their tails. It's just cruel.
I caught a alligator snapping turtle in New Mexico I think someone put him in the stream tho
I am from New Mexico and we have lots of Snapping turtles all around our state.
wonderful video. I'm supposed to be asleep but I can't stop watching your videos!! keep em coming. I loved your little cow run in
Love how you emphasize how to not hurt the animals.
omggggggg turtle
Is that a snake in the water at 5:17?
kinda looks like one dont it
Ye
Yea
Great video, my 5 yr old loved it.
Nice to see coach Mora enjoying himself after his stint with the N.O.Saints! 😁
lol don't moo at them you have no clue what you are saying to them. Last time I moo'ed at a cow it charged me.
"What! My mother was a saint!!! Get out!"
same thing happened to me !

😂😂
i like turtles. type that in the search bar of youtube. you wont regret it
you're cute
i wil
Very cool video! Once in the country near a river there was a huge, mud encrusted snapping turtle on the road and we needed to wait 20 minutes for it to move!
Thanks, Beau!
i love your videos your so considerate towards nature it makes your videos that much more enjoyable to watch
You should put a common snapping turtle in a box, and give it to your worst enemy for christmas. Make sure that it says, "shake before opening". I'm kidding, of course; I would never do that to the poor turtle, but it's funny to joke about it.
NY Herper nice bro
Looks like good eating to me,,, and To anyone that says Turtles are not food ,, lol,,, No more hamburgers for you.,,,, or Chicken ,,, or Fish,,,but remember this ( Alligator Turtle's are protected by law) The one in the video is the snapping turtle,,,
Man oh man, your awesome! Always something interesting
i found an alligator snapper bought the same size once while working security at a college. I teased it a bit with a stick, but no way could i do what this man does in streams, rivers, and creeks. These animals camoflouge into their surroundings so well that id be afraid of stepping on one while searching for things in the creek beds. Aquachigger is my new Steve Irwin. I love this dudes videos.
*That moment when you look at the title again*
"And I may not even pick him up becuuuz, I don't really trust turtles very much"
*🧐*
why dont u leave them turtles alone?
That moment when your sleeping in your bed at night, and from the inside your closet you hear “I can feel turtles...”
oh my gosh. my little brother watches you and now i see why, your freaken awsome and funny XD great job!
I don't think I wanna eat beef anymore
They are so cute
Nah...I like my fingers. Rather attached to them.
D M Same.
Well done. Really enjoyed this. Just tonight found a big one. They are out and about looking for mates I guess at this time of year.
Great video, love turtles thanks for posting
This guy reminds me of Trevor Philips hehe.
Put your finger in the mouth
+erichb22 nah, pet the eyes first
😂😂😂😂
if he does he's not gonna have a finger
lool
beau gives the best information
Hey Beau, I just had to watch this video again. I love all Turtles 🐢, including Snappers. They are so beautiful and fascinating, like a modern day dinosaur! I'm very careful when I pick them up, and move them out of the roads. This was such a cool video! I really appreciate you sharing this one! Your Friend, Kari in Texas
It’s amazing how beautiful Gods creation is. Praise God.
Did they have snapping turtles on Noah's Ark?
Michael Pasek Lol not to sure I wasn’t there. But I do know there were two kinds of every animal. Ray comfort explains this much better than I can. Give it a look. God bless you brother.
@@randymartinez6446 You contradicted yourself. You said not sure; then you said you know there was.
Michael Pasek Well actually I didn’t, you just didn’t understand me correctly. I said I’m not sure if there were snapping turtles on the ark but I do know there were two kinds of every animal. There’s absolutely no contradiction here at all. Nevertheless brother how are you? Is there anything in your life you would like prayer for? Anything. I’ll be glad to pray for or with you😀👍.
FAKE! This is not metal detecting. Turtles shells are made out of ROCK, not metal. Keep living in your little fantasy world where turtles are made out of metal and we'll see how far you go in life. Aside from that, I appreciate the PSA about how to pick up dogs by the tail.
Lmao

LMFAO IT'S A JOKE CALM THE HELL DOWN
This is better than t.v and the guy makes the video entertaining to watch.I loved and laughed when he went, "I'm gonna give him a little bath."
absolutely charming and amusing
I know you don't harm them in any way, but I don't think it's right to cheer people on to find turtles and pick them up. They're hiding for a reason. Leave the poor sods alone.
Oh shut up and let people enjoy nature.
A video to be proud of. Bravo.
Beau you're entertaining man! Keep up the good work
Like your vids. I've hunted turtle for years. It's been about 20 yrs. since I've been turteling.
Great vid tjanls for sharing glad u kept acknowledging not to pick them up by the tail
Patrick Gabriel i pick mine up by the tail but i eat them
Another great video! 🐢
I just had to laugh when you just kept pokin' at him at 7:55. XD
Nice Video Beau that was a nice turtle
aquachigger your vid is so great i love to see people hunt and fish its great to see that keep up the good work i want to go and catch a snapper im 40 now but i caught one with my dad when i was like 18 but your vid make me want to go and catch one thank you and keep up the go work

Those are some really nice looking cows. Good genetics.
Awesome video! I appreciate the tips
