In this picture we see the natives of a tropical country engaged in catching monstrous turtles. In the first picture we see a boat load of men come to the trap and after a short search they are successful in capturing a big fellow, which they drag into the boat and take to the village. One thing worthy of special mention is the way a turtle is harnessed and made to drag a little wagon in which two children are seated.

Original French title is undetermined.

Released in the US as a split reel along with Behind the Mask (1909) and The Fiddlers (1909).
