Turtle Torture!!!

[Gr8KarmaSF]

This is so gross! :WTF:

It made me sick!

They are actually selling these for $50 each.

Why share it? To educate people and have people not support the frankenturtle industry.

YES, THIS IS FOR REAL AND NOT A JOKE!

Yep, its sad, but a truth you have to come to accept.

You mean the turtles with no eyes?

 

[is300zx]

why would anyone want a turtle without eyes?

I don't think is this exactly "torture".

It's definitely f'ed up though.

 

[fishnthings]

i dont think its that bad... they are born.. what are you going to do.. kill them or take care of them?... i think they should only sell them for what they sell the regular ones though... but its nothing close to torture

weird a two headed turtle. why would you want a blind tortoise?

 

[FishHeadSoup]

wheres the two headed blind turtle for sale?

 

[guppy]

That two headed sport is about the same price as the last one I saw for sale.
I would not want them but eyeless turtles are not all that uncommon, very few survive.
I don't see any torture though, these are not mutilated turtles, they are just the result of a genetic birth defect.
