Will they take him? When I worked in a zoo, we were always getting calls from people trying to find a home for their unwanted reptiles. Rarely did we take any in.

i have 2 snappers. last year the zoo offer a home for my 2 snappers. i gave 1 but i decide to keep 1 snapper for awhile, soon i try call zoo again.
if zoo reject, i send snapper to "Live Turtle & Tortoise Museum"
but me got to pay them $50 . i don't mind paying if snapper got a good home.

Zoos probably wont take them in because alot of people give up snappings, along with sliders, cooters, painteds. Zoos are probably jammed with them. If I were you I would get a 300gallon stock tank and put it somewhere safe and just get good filters. Turtles are just alot of responsibility, and shouldnt be taken lightly. Especially snappers. If you REALLY cant take it, then I would post it on kingsnake or a forum that deals with classifieds of the sort. Just mention that it needs 300gs or a pond to make sure you give it to a good home. Kay? Nice turtle. White coloration.

Alligator snappers, Macrochelys temminckii will be taken in by some zoos as they are considered a threatened species and are listed on CITES Appendix III. Besides he's in Hong Kong, Kingsnake.com probably wouldn't be a help for him.
