Ok,

You need to come to Iowa and see what is going on here with the harvesting of turtles. Or for that matter any other state that does not have any bag limits. This is the angle I am coming from. In Iowa, I can get a commercial harvester permit for $100. I can then collect as many painteds, snappers, softies that I want. Period. There is no further regulations. I personally know a trapper that caught 20 ton of snapper in one season from one place. Is this what you want? Because without any restrictions in this state, this is what you get. Without restrictions, bans, or whatever you are going to deplete the population and it will crash. This may be my opinion, but it is well know fact in the scientific community.

About the pictures, these are only examples of what was available in 2001 and 2002. Most of the species available then are no longer offered. The Chinese now offer American species. If you think it is ok to offer up our animals for medicinal and spook medicine, well then by all means!
