Go here Turtle Times

Its a forum just for turtles. I belong there with my snapping turtle. There is SO much information in the forum & so many people willing to help. You might get lucky & one of the guys might take the sickly little guy off your hands & get his health back up.

If you want that little shop closed, ask for help on that site, they'll know what to do.

I sent some letters to the local media around here, just to let everyone know. Hopefully a few of them will run the story. I talked to a local reptile store, and he said that everyday they throw at least 20 of the babies away, dead.

The mall never responded to any of my 3 letters.

I've tried everything other than taking him to a vet, I believe he's slowly fading away. He sits out of the water all day everyday, and is becoming much less responsive to me.

Ohh no I'm sorry!! I hope your efforts aren't in vain though. If you need any help or ideas let me know!

You won't believe it. I sent those letters in last night....they had a special on illegally selling hatchlings around this area on the news!! I didn't catch it, I wasn't home but I was sure happy that it aired. My dad called and said hey did you hear about it...and I was like wow, I sent them letters! It's kind of exciting to be able to do that.
