Depends on the turtle. Alligator Snapping Turtle, when mature, is said to have 11 or more distinctly different flavors depending on where it comes from on its anatomy, kinda like light or dark meat on a chicken.
People have said they can taste beef, pork, chicken, goat, shrimp, fish, lobster, and others from one animal.
I've only caught and cooked small common snapping turtles into Piquant or other Creole dishes, so you can't tell if there are different flavors.

I guess that's why you're the Chef!!

Pacific tree frogs are native to my area. I sometimes find them when I'm cleaning gutter downspouts. I have no idea how they survive in the wild, as we get zero rain from April-November.
