See URL for more info. Your proposal appears to be illegal, but remember with government, everything has a workaround--yours would most likely be to contact the fish & game biologists and see if you can get a program going with their blessing. They will be concerned about introducing disease from your captive stock into otherwise healthy existing populations.



How has the weather been this year, and the years prior? Could a meteorological explanation be found for the lack of turtle sightings this year in PA?
