Caught in fall and stored in cellars for rising prices, 125 live snapping turtles weighing 1,229 pounds were moved from Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin to McGregor, Iowa, then packed for Philadelphia. Five varieties capturable on the upper Mississippi include snapping turtles, soft-shelled, terrapin, queens, and juniellas. Prices range from five to eighteen cents per pound live, dressed meat about fifty four cents. The industry has grown as fishermen save turtles rather than discard them, with several keeping stock in cellars through winter to meet demand.
