How to handle a snapping turtle: An uninjured snapper can be coaxed across the road using a shovel or a board. If you must pick up a snapping turtle by hand, do so by coming behind him, and sliding your dominant hand underneath him, from under the tail, as if you were picking up a tray of drinks, or a pizza box. Stabilize the tail with your non-dominant hand (of course you do NOT hold them by the tail). (see photo below) This should prevent any ability to bite or scratch you. Make sure to hold them well away from your body! A Snapper can reach it’s midpoint so do not pick it up near its middle. ever pick up a turtle by the tail; you may damage its spine.

How do the turtles cross the road? With help, sometimes.
