Comment on Northern River Otter vs. American Mink by Lydell Gorski

Just to confirm the presence or absence of mink in the Northwest, I spotted one in the Scablands of Eastern Washington last year in and around a creek. We were in a fairly remote area. It was seen swimming in the creek along the banks well vegetated edge and disappeared into its cover. I felt pretty lucky to see it, but then again, I am a transplant from the burbs. I digress…

Comment on Video – Large Gray Rat Snake at Radnor Lake by Drew

Great site. I live in Nashville, too. Today I was walking around the Lake Trail and found a decent size Rat Snake myself (probably 3-4 ft.) I have had a good overall experience at Radnor as far as herping goes. Just last week me and my girlfriend saw two Common Snapping Turtles mating along the bank! I wouldn’t completely dismiss the possibility of Alligator Snappers living in there somewhere. Maybe some day one of us will be able to get on and post some pictures to confirm once and for all!

Comment on Alligator Snapping Turtle: Nashville Resident? by james

I just caught a baby alligator turtle in my pond 1 hour ago. its in my fish tank now if anyone wants to see pics. I live 30 min from nashville, my house backs up to the cumberland. I think I have the parent of the baby in my pond as well. I saw it about a week ago and was easily over 200lbs. I dont plan on keeping the turtle in my fish tank I just had to bring it up to my house so my wife would finally believe me about what I saw. I wondered why I dont have a lot of big fish in my pond. Now it all makes since.

i know for a fact we have minks up here in maryland. i have seen them up in the woods where i hunt. they can be very protective and stubborn but if they dont know your watching them they are very playful running and jumping around the forest.

Anyway, the hike was quite enjoyable, at least during the portion spent talking with my fellow hikers, for I had gotten out of my head: not a particularly pleasant place to be this morning. “Thanks for your explaining your prior experience to us”
