can alligator snapping turtles survive ny winters in an outdoor pond?
i know people who cant handle keeping them and i am planning on turning half of my backyard into a HUGE ravine pond to house them.
i am going to dig down three feet and create an underground fence made of steele plating then build a wire fence above ground to keep them from escaping.
this is a summer project and i am still preparing for it
the major thing i need to know is if they can survive the freezing weather
any info is much appreciated
