The Texas Parks Wildlife Department has doubled the reward to $2,000 for those who offer a tip about someone poaching the threatened alligator snapping turtle.
The TPWD recently announced that it will double the reward up to $2,000 if "the tip leads to convictions for snapping turtle cases," thanks to an increase in funds through the agency's Conservation License Plate Program, the TPWD shared in a press release.

Alligator snapping turtles are listed as a threatened species and harvesting the turtles is illegal in the state of Texas, the TPWD continued.
