Turtle cleaning
Take a coat hanger, bent the end into a "J". Put the J in the turtles mouth, pull until you extend the neck out and cut the head off. Let turtle expire. Once dead flip turtle onto its back. Take a small ax or machette and whack the shell between the four legs. This will separate the top and bottom shell. With turtle upside down, run a knife along the bottom part of the shell to detach this part of the shell. Then take your knife and run it along the four legs and neck to detach this from the top part of the shell. Take some skinning pliars and skin the legs, also cut of the claws off. Legs and neck are the only edible parts. If the turtle has eggs you can try cooking these also but it's not for me.
