Wild Turtles Are Not Pets
Taking home a wild turtle is something you should never do; wild animals deserve to live their lives in the wild.
If you or someone you know wants a pet turtle, it is better to buy one from a reputable breeder. Better yet, try a rescue society that adopts out abandoned turtles in need of proper care and a good home. Some pet stores have turtles for sale, but you should only buy one from a store that has knowledgeable people and healthy turtles.
