EP:270 | Bonus: Understanding the Alligator Snapping Turtle
Manage episode 443483520 series 2911333
On this week’s bonus episode, herpetologist Jimmy Stiles brings a giant alligator snapping turtle into the studio to teach of about these turtles. We’ve all seen them and we’re all fearful of those powerful jaws. Old timers say if they bite you they won’t let go until it thunders and some of us are willing to sacrifice one of Dudley’s appendages to see if this is true. Do you know how they make a catch food, where they prefer to live and how long they live? We also discuss burning in hardwood bottoms. Jimmy is about to get his PHD and he has studied the effects of fire on invasive privit and bottomland hardwoods and shares his insight. It’s an interesting discussion. Listen, Learn and Enjoy.
