Just wondering if any one knows whether or not you can keep a snapping turtle as a pet. In the regs it says you can keep 2 a day and posses up to 5, for eating. What if I wanted to keep as a pet in a backyard with a pond? Legal ?

if u want a pet turtle, painted turtles make great pets, they are a very nice turtel, as they attack, unlike the snapper
to legally keep any wild animal in captivity, you need a permit from the MNR.
Steadyeddy, you should start out by just petting the snappers in their natural setting. As soon as you are comfortable with rubbing their head, take one home.
