Ponds and other outdoor enclosures.

After the first 2 trips ended in Kingler trying to kill her, I used my aggression technique I've used the last 2 summers, and once again it worked!

I put both turtles in a box or another enclosure for about an 30 minutes. Just let them wander around. Then I release them both into the pond at the same time, and no aggression is shown.

Same size. But Kingler is wider.
