The turtle population expands in my pond from time to time but I use these expansions as an opportunity to hone my shooting skills. The lever action Henry 22 combined with a Redfield scope makes for good times plinking turtles.

Gators will eat fish.Their impact on game fish is negligible.I've seen firsthand the impact of releasing a gator in a pond.But you have the right to your opinion

No.

Start trapping them and relocate, dump, eat or something else.

This is false! Accidental discharge will kill every turtle in a pond this size. Even if the glock was on the bottom of the pond for 10 years, it will keep on killing turtles. You can probably find a youtube video of it happening.
