Snapping turtle predation - Grafton Lake, Kejimkujik National Park
I observed 7 different snapping turtle nests on the shores of Grafton lake near the old fish hatchery. All seven of these nests had sadly been predated, but being able to see signs of that many breeding females is a good sign even if none of their eggs managed to survive. Don't get me wrong though, I hate seeing this many predated nests.
