Can I feed my pet shark a turtle?

I have a 65 inch pet mako shark. While fishing the river the other day, I caught a 14 pound leatherback turtle. I was just wondering if I could feed it to my shark?

other than the fact that the turtle u caught is protected i dont see y u couldnt feed it to the shart i mean the shark is larger enough to eat it but i would watch since everyone knows what ur thinkin and there might b someone who will try and snitch so think about it

I have friends who own lizards - one bearded dragon and one "underwatersaurus" (that's what they call it - it's some sort of gecko - it's really cute though). They eat crickets and other bugs, I don't know how you would go with that though. Another friend owns a turtle. He doesn't really seem to do much though (the turtle, not the friend!) My boyfriend and I have an Alexandrine parrot. We are teaching him how to talk and do tricks etc. It's really fun and so rewarding when he does it. He's a little cutie. I also have four guinea pigs. They are really cute. They love routine and now know when it's dinner time, so they wheek at me for food. They will come up to side of the cage so I can feed them treats through the bars. They love cuddling too and will often fall asleep on me, and sometimes lick my hand like a dog!

that kind of turtle is endangered and protected by law, unless you want to get arrested go right ahead. how would you sleep at night knowing that you could wipe out that species of turtles

How did you manage to find a leather back in a river?
