I just expressed my position that the selling of those doomed turtles is basicallly animal cruelty.
For past few years some people throughout the city have been getting the hatchlings from somewhere and setting up at shopping centers or even walking the streets and selling them.They place them in small clear containers with a little water and sell them to whomever is willing to pay the ten or twenty bucks for them.I told the woman that most of the people who buy such "turtle kits" don't have a clue as to how to properly care for them.
