How does one care for a baby snapping turtle?

I like to see that they take a lot of varied food, because we eat, at my house, very different meals from the supermarket. we have always plenty of vegetable and fruits. My dog don´t get used to eat those cans of dog food, sold in the mall, I think that´s because I gave her other fooos, human foods, Before I begin to give her canned dog food. That´s why, but if he decides to keep the turtle, I will try definitely to use dog food. Well, salmonella, and vindictive creatures to add.....Then I have to convince not to keep that animal. A cat is harmless, and affectionate. I hope I can change his mind then :)

I´m sure they does. In fact plankton is a very good source of nourishment for all kind of fishes. Whales are an animal that eats plankton everyday, hundreds or even millions of kilogrames of plankton everyday. And what to say about Algaes, they are other source of nutriment, full of minerals, vitamins, and enzimes, that´s why eating fish is so recommended by any nutritionist.
