LFS has a baby sea turtle for sale

[Chrisplosion]

can i buy it my self and take it down there? but i wouldnt get my money back? or from Fish n wildlife?

It would be illegal for them to sell but also illegal for you to purchase it. Just call The Department of Fish and Wildlife.

if you buy it and take it down there , you will lose your money and the shop will get more in. are you sure it's a salt water turtle?

Fly River turtle somewhat resemble sea turtles.

If it is illegal, which I'm sure it is, then its a really big deal. So I would think they would look into it. If you can go down there and get a picture, it can be identified and used as evidence.

First find out what the turtle is .. ring the shop and ask for the common name, it might not be what you think it is , what fish are in the tank with the turtle?

2nd if it is a salt water turtle they will even listen to a 10 year old , so don't worry about being 14!

You could always email them. Hell I'll find you the email, what state are you in?

You can send them an email and the shop owner will never find out. Just search (Your State) Fish and Wild life.

I'm looking right now.
