Snapping Turtles Invade Utah's Weber River

Fri, 07/17/2015 - 10:25 -- jmaslar

Bad news out of Ogden: Our biologists believe there is a breeding population of snapping turtles in the lower Weber River. Snapping turtles are relatively new to the area and are not native to Utah; they can be very aggressive and dangerous to people, so be careful, and do not approach them. If you see a snapping turtle in this area, please call 801-476-2740. MORE about the Weber River at Troutprostore.
