How Do You Make A Simple Turtle Trap?
A simple turtle trap can be made using a mesh wire basket, a piece of bait such as raw chicken or fish, and a string to secure the trap to a tree or post. Place the bait inside the basket and set the trap near the edge of a pond or river. When the turtle crawls into the trap to eat the bait, the mesh will prevent it from getting out. Check the trap daily and release any captured turtles carefully back into the water.
