EimiYoshikawa posted:The interesting thing is that while their primary hunting methodology is ambush hunting, luring prey in (or waiting for it pass by), then striking with blinding speed and power (and it's just the alligator snappers that have the wiggly-worm-mimicking tongues they use to lure prey in, non-alligator snappers don't), they also go out and seek immobile prey like plants, snails, clams and freshwater sponges. So it's not just motion-based like some animals do, and, obviously, they aren't even pure carnivores, they're technically omnivores, they just like meat a lot more. oh yeah, reptiles are fascinating. my gf got me into them, plus they are pretty easy pets. i am probably gonna try to buy a snake(probably a kenyan sand boa) and or a bearded dragon after a graduate. plus they have weird little personalities(sorta) Flyball posted:Psychopathy.

In fairness have you any idea how LONG the taxpayer would be paying to imprison a turtle for life?

Snapping turtles are metal as gently caress. I used to live next to the Mississippi and every once in a while we would have to herd one off the road so it wouldn't get hit by a car. Those things get big, too. The biggest one I saw had a shell the size of a manhole cover and could strike halfway back along is shell. Mean rear end dino turtles ain't nothing to gently caress with. That science teacher sounds like a dick, though.

Or ya know, if you are dead set on feeding a goddamn puppy to a turtle (because that’s super normal to begin with) how about killing it humanely and throwing the body in there, instead of making sure an animal that already drew a short straw in life gets the most brutal death imaginable? And maybe don’t do it in front of a group of kids.

And maybe don’t do it in front of a group of kids. This is the answer. Kill the poor thing humanely first. Don't feed it to another animal live, for crying out loud. It is going to die anyway, but why should it have to suffer? I'm far from being an animal rights activist, but we should have compassion for other creatures and take reasonable steps to reduce their pain, not delight in it - particularly domestic animals which are under our care. This guy is a sicko and I guarantee he would delight in human suffering as well. I hope they find something really incriminating because animal cruelty laws may not be strong enough to keep him off the streets.

I raised a snapping turtle as a pet from the size of a quarter to the size of a shoebox. It's the most vicious, murderous animal I've ever owned. I never fed it anything living except cigar minnows and earthworms, and it did such a savage number on them with its claws and beak I shudder to think of what this poor puppy endured before death. Last time I was at the Audobon Zoo in New Orleans they had an alligator snapper the size of a small ottoman, I think a perfect punishment would be to strip the teacher naked and just throw him in its tank after it hasn't been fed for a week or two and hit RECORD.

Not sure if the comments about breeders were based in fact, but Jesus thinking that a person who keeps dogs and breeds them would be ok sending one off to be eaten alive (no matter how hosed up it is) is messed up.

i saw a snapping turtle once when hiking with my dad and wated it pet it, he grabbed this thick rear end brach and was like "imagine this is your hand" and held it out and that fukin' turtle snapped that poo poo in two rip turtle buddy, you're just doing what you were made to: destroying anything placed in front of you

An Idaho judge ruled that the only fair punishment was for him to be fed to an alligator snapping turtle. Oddly, the judge also ruled that the students must watch this feeding too. That's Idaho for you I guess.

Syncopated posted:The Ottoman empire is over dude, they're just regular old turks now. I think that's racist? Not sure. Regardless that big old alligator snapper at the Audobon Zoo is/was big enough that it could absolutely consume a human being given a day or two. That teacher is obviously a malformed runt. The solution is obvious.

The more I read about this, the weirder it gets, really. It's fascinating...much the way watching a snapping turtle eat a puppy must be. Also, apparently the puppy drowned after being thrown into the tank and THEN the turtle ate it. But there are some conflicting stories there, too. Like the puppy was not only deformed and rejected by its mother and unable to eat but it also maybe had a communicable disease. I know when I have an animal that has something contagious, the first thing I do is feed it to another animal. I liked this quote from a former student: “It’s really hard on a small community, like Preston, to watch them tear apart somebody that everybody loves.” Little worried about Idaho.
