Florida's softshell turtles are being killed at an alarming rate- twenty per day per trapper!
Their meat is usually shipped straight to China, where the turtle populations have long been depleted by the medicine and soup industries.

PLEASE write Gov. Crist and tell him to
promote laws that save this incredible animal. His email is: charlie.crist@myflorida.gov :)
