sg also has been invaded by fts, so does tat affect our living conditions n environment like more rubbish seen everywhere. whether these turtles are really contagious than humam spreading you n me know it well.

razorback is a unique turtle which i kept when i was working overseas, when it is adult its sppearance is as attractive as when its small.

How abt sst? Soft shell turtle? Chinese soft shell turtles?listed as Vn on CITES but used as turtle soup world wide...

The reason why it is not approved because they will say it aids in increasing its demand therefore affecting wild populations.

SST make poor pets in my opinion. Used to to catch them in the longkang last time, they will bury themselves in the sand to ambush prey. Aggressive, grows big and has a nasty bite, not a good idea to keep in the house with children around.

I think lists as vulnerable in the wild. But captive bred there are plentiful of them as source of food.
