Wes Prewett may be the closest thing to a dinosaur wrangler you’ll see after catching a monster of an alligator snapping turtle at Blue Creek on Lake Mitchell in Alabama. This nearly 200 pound beast is estimated to be well over 100 years old.
Prewett is said to have released the turtle shortly after these photos were taken, so it’s not too late if you were hoping to catch one of these giants.
