The snapping turtle who was fed a puppy in front of students at an Idaho junior high school has been euthanized, according to a representative for the Idaho State Department of Agriculture.

“The snapping turtle was euthanized humanely” a statement from the ISDA representative said.

Meh...dime-a-dozen anyway.

I’m in perfect agreement, the teacher should have been fed to the turtle. Live. Starting with limbs that have a tourniquet above each bite to prevent bleeding to death. When the turtle is full, patch him up until the next feeding.

Spend a lot of time planning these little scenarios...??

There he is, Boss. Deader ‘an hell but won’t let go.

Ur,no, would not have bothered me, but a puppy? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Flick Lives]

“Invasive species”.

Pretty much describes liberals.

A turtle? We not talking a Pitbull, or Dobie or a Shepard here. It’s a frick’n turtle!

And we are surprised about raising cruel kids who like to massacre their classmates.

Well that's just stupid. The Turtle did what was in it's nature. It's the kook who thought he should feed it a puppy that needs to be punished, not the turtle.

I’m a victim of watching too many shows like AMC’s “Walking Dead”.

Sheesh this is news? I guess I won’t talk about being a student aid in High School bio almost fifty years ago. Amphibians were always pithed not stirred and reptiles ate all sorts of cool live animals.

And why didn’t the family know enough not to put the puppy up there, or at least check on it!

WHY DID THE STATE KILL THE TURTLE??? They seized and killed it. Outrageous.

I hated biology in high school when we dissected a pregnant rat.

[Reno89519]

I had no problems with it, though never a pregnant rat. That would have been interesting.

It’s been reported that the turtle requested a puppy for his last meal.

[euram]

So, the turtle was punished for eating. I don’t believe the turtle hunted down the puppy and killed for fun.

[I want the USA back]

Why? The culprit is still alive.

Snapping turtles are an invasive species in Idaho?

How about feeding whoever made an issue out of this in the first place?
