Thanks for all you do,Ken.We need more like you.There is a farm in Nebraska which raises
snappers for meat.I've seen pictures of the shells of the deceased ,stacked like cordwood ,one row on top of the other.I live in Florida where until this month,any person could apply for a permit to catch 20 turtles a day and sell them to an Asian exporter in Tampa.They were being exported for the dinner tables in the Asian peninsula.Twenty a day per man!The softshells especially adults have been fished out.Finally,the public had enough ,so did the governor,and as of Sept. 1st,you are permitted to catch one turtle a day and NOT for export to China.What took so long for this slaughter to end?
