Tank came out to visit me while I worked on his website. He just wants to spend time with me. I guess we are buddies. Sometimes he'll sit behind me, I'll reach back and rub his shell, head or neck. We trust each other and it shows with how comfortable he is with me. One day I had to do some work on his pond which required me to get in the water with him. It was the first time I entered his water territory and to be honest I was a little worried, male snapping are very territorial. Tank welcomed me to his water and did all he could to keep me from my job. He wanted to see every tool I had brought with me. I'm happy he accepts me. It's a pleasure working with such a remarkable turtle.
