That is so true. Ornate Wood Turtles are in a little area down there in Costa Rica/Nicaragua, they'll go extinct in the wild if they keep collecting them ...ever since I found my two adults, I never seen another adult in pet stores. I wondered if adults are far and few in between.
I hope next season I hatch eggs, this year...it was my first shot. 2 eggs were empty and the first one laid died.
