120 Lbs Snapping Turtle

Hello: I was visiting some relatives in Louisiana this April along the Memantau River in South central and west Louisiana. We were running lines for catfish when we came across a 120 Lbs. Snapping Turtle. It was estimated to be around 75 to 90 years old. I thought your viewers may enjoy seeing this picture. By the way it was released back into the River even thought they are not endangered for now because of the oil spill if you know what I mean.
